 KBV Dark Fired Cherry in the black Rekamepip Rockcob. This is a great combination. Dark roast coffee on the side.  I’ve gotta bring out the old rockcob. I have a few Rekamepips. |

Zach, I have a new appreciation for you pal. If it took a week to move your cellar I am impressed! 👀😎  As it’s been a gradual move, I would move 3 or 4 medium sized moving boxes at a time after work along with various other small things packed in around each trip, then on the weekend I mostly moved furniture with a truck. The tobacco took up 12 medium-sized 19”x14”x17” moving boxes. I’m currently smoking some 2021 Warped Scarecrow in a Halloween Peterson 2022 05 bent and sandblasted Dublin system pipe with orange stem. The Scarecrow has gotten better and smoother in two years of age. Is this move a result of the problems you were having at the old house? (Leaks, I think?) |

Just time to move on from that place and get a bigger yard and space. Still renting though, and waiting out the interest rates a bit. |

Had a couple bowls of Friar's Bayou in the Monday cob while watching the hockey and football games. Now, Silver Strike in a self-made, rusticated, slightly bent billiard.

Good Morning! Sorry, Urb, I woke up at my preferred five o' something. It's 31° here with a clear sky, moonlight, and the workshop heater is running on the high setting. This afternoon I'm going to have lunch with an old Navy buddy that I haven't seen in over forty years. He lives in Canton and we had planned to get together in September, but had to postpone. Starting the smoking day with a bowl of HH Pure VA Flake in the Savinelli Venere 128 smooth billiard and there's a fresh travel mugga coffee tucked underneath my jacket. Have a good one, everybody!

Have a great visit, Russ!
It's quite chilly for us this morning and I'm thinking about taking the truck in lieu of my usual motorcycle commute. That also means a pipe and coffee can join the ride. I've loaded up two cobs full of Burley Legal and am smoking one now. Have a safe Halloween everyone!

Thanks, Darin. A lot of life has happened since we were shipmates back then. Currently smoking a bowl of aged Dunhill Flake in the Sav smooth billiard while sipping my coffee and watching an episode of Inspector Morse on the tablet.

Good Morning Again! It's 29° here with a sunny sky right now. Working on a bowl of Straight Grain Flake in the Sav smooth billiard and there's still some coffee left in the mug.

Happy Hallowe'en! Started the day with a couple bowls of Haunted Bookshop and coffee in the cave. It's 38 and partly sunny here. Not gonna be much warmer and a snow flurry is possible for the trick-or-treaters this evening. I'll get a little workshop time during the afternoon.

With Haunted Bookshop in your pipe and Dracula hanging around, you're all set for Halloween, Pete.

The trick-or-treaters have all gone home. I've returned to the Peterson Dracula I started earlier. While passing out treats, I had some Haunted Bookshop in the Tuesday cob. Yes, it snowed for a little while.

Has been snowing here as well. My youngest daughter went in a yellow hazmat suit with a mask that makes it look like she was in a chemical disaster and the mask is twisted/contorted to look like it’s melted into the face. Was about 34 degrees out there, the coldest Halloween here in a good 20 years. I’m smoking more 2021 Warped Scarecrow in my 2022 Halloween Peterson.  |

McConnell Scottish Cake in a Royal Crown Windsor by Hardcastle. Nice looking Dunhill, Silver! To those that do not know, Hardcastle pipes are Dunhill seconds, that Sometimes the people that did the grading threw magnificent bones to us dawgs.😉 And Scottish Cake is as yummy as it sounds. |

Scottish Mixture in a Yorktown Canadian.
Not sure who made the pipe, bought it from a fellow pipe club member that was thinning the herd. It is always in my bag for traveling.
5 trick or treaters is all we got.🤨
