Good Morning and Welcome to November! It's 29° here with light snow on the ground and more is on the way very soon. The accumulation will only be about an inch and it should all melt away over the afternoon. I have some small chores and a few phone calls to make today, so there will be time for a nap and goofing off. Starting the smoking day with a bowl of HH Pure VA Flake in the Upshall smooth quarter-bent Dublin and there's a fresh travel mugga coffee tucked underneath my jacket. Have a good one, everybody!

It's 31° and the heater is running on the high setting, but the workshop is still chilly. Currently smoking a bowl of fresh Straight Grain Flake in the Upshall Dublin while watching an episode of Midsomer Murders. There's also some more coffee left in the mug.

Good morning ... welcome to November! 🤪
I'm having some 2008/09 McClelland Beacon Extra in the J. Everett Billiard with coffee to drink.

Good Morning Again! It's still one degree below freezing, but the sky has cleared, the sun is out, and the earlier threat of snow didn't amount to anything. Wrapping up my time here in the workshop with a bowl of Bayou Morning Flake in the Upshall Dublin and there's a few swallows of coffee left in the mug. I was awake at three, so I think I'll head back to the house for some more sleep.

Happy November! Started the month with a couple bowls of Haunted Bookshop in the Wednesday cob and coffee in the cave. It's 34 and sunny here, and won't get much warmer. Taking down the Halloween decorations today, then a little workshop time, before we start prepping tonight's dinner.

With a big ol' hawk for company. He just landed on top of my fence, about 15 feet from me. Looks well fed.

Man, that was a really satisfying couple of smokes. Not sure why, other than that OG is good stuff.

Good Morning! It's 26° here with a cloudy sky, but warmer temperatures are on the way. I have a bit of a cold, so I'm not feeling all that well. Even so, I have to mail a package and get a new postcard scanned for my collection this afternoon. Starting the smoking day with a bowl of Scottish Flake in the BBB Two Star Special smooth billiard and there's a fresh travel mugga coffee tucked underneath my jacket. Have a good one, everybody!

It's a cold and crispy morning here with lingering smokey scents of the controlled burns taking place. Since it's officially Latakia season now, I'm celebrating with some 1999 McClelland Bombay Court in an IMP Meer with coffee to drink. Have a great day all!

Good Morning Again! It's 29° now and still cloudy here. I've been smoking my way through the tobacco rotation and I'm currently enjoying a bowl of Bayou Morning Flake in the BBB smooth billiard and there's some coffee left in the mug. Back to watching another episode of Inspector Morse.
