I just smoked some of The Country Squire's "Delta-Honeydew" from a Missouri Meerschaum Country Gentleman Bent. I did not enjoy the smoke. The tobacco is just ok. I cleaned out the cob using Pipemaster's Clean & Cure. The next tobacco and pipe in my rotation will be The Squire's "Tombigbee" formerly called "Old Toby". I will smoke it in a Vauen Mokka (5277). Yum!  |

I’m still smoking my 90% PS81, 6% Perique and 4% DAC blend, but I felt like doing something different pipe wise, so I’m smoking it in an antique removable bowl meerschaum.   |

I'm having another bowl of Friar's Bayou, this time in the barrel-shaped meerschaum.

Good Late Afternoon! It's 81° out here on the deck with low humidity, a mix of white clouds and sun, and a cool breeze blowing by. Glad to finally be able to sit out here after all of the hot days lately. Currently smoking a bowl of fresh HH Pure VA Flake in the Stanwell Silver Mount blasted billiard and there's a glass of cold water on the side.

That's a very interesting pipe. How old is it? Hey Russ, it’s difficult to say for sure, I believe the style was made from the 1890’s up to WWI. All of these old meerschaums are easier to date by their stems, and this one has a replacement Bakelite stem, likely replaced a broken amber one. |

Smoking some mcclelland walnut liqour and about to dump it out it's giving me some Bite and the taste ain't worth the fight lol. About to pack up some aged sps Barbados plantation in my only pipe the savinelli bings favorite. I am considering going to a pipe club meeting in grand rapids michigan tonight but am unsure because it is a little bit of a drive and still new to all this. I'm a greenhorn piper lol. Hope everyone's day is going good!

The second best reason is there’s usually people who bring interesting tobaccos for everyone to try. |

Good afternoon folks. I’m smoking the last bowl of Sun Bear in a Sasieni rusticated billiard. Heat backed off a bit and now it’s just normal hot. My sister in law and family are in town, so they’re stopping over to use the pool and calm down the kiddos. So this bowl will be the last bit of peace for the day  . Honestly glad they enjoy it so much. Hope you all have a great day. You've been saying that for 3 days. |

I definitely killed it today though! |

Wow amazing experience at the furniture city pipe club in grand rapids. I got asked to be a member and joined what a great group of pipers! I just finished up a bowl of haunted bookshop and wow just wow now i know why Silver is always smoking it. Haunted bookshop after 1 bowl id have to say is one of my favorites now. To finish the night I am smoking some Balkan tradition flake out of my bings favorite made by one of the head members named Eric. What a great overall time!

Good Morning! It's 63° with a partly cloudy sky here at first light. This afternoon I have to take my wife to the hospital wound care clinic. Just lit up the first bowl of the day, HH Pure VA Flake, in the Don Carlos smooth bent Two Note and there's a fresh travel mugga coffee on the workshop tobacco table. Have a good one everybody!
