What are You Smoking? August 2024

F.M.O.T.T. in the London made pot, coffee on the side.

Having a bowl of Friar's Bayou in the Thursday cob on the back deck. Picked tomatoes, cucumbers and eggplants. Gotta check on the beans.

You’re the second person to notice.  Answer in this previous post:  thebriarpatchforum.com/post/488453

 Thanks for the reply. I didn't see the helmet until now, but the crab is plain a can be...come to think of it, a crab would be a nice logo   in a sea-goin kindda way.

Good Afternoon! It's 83° with a light breeze and a mostly cloudy sky out here on the deck. Smoking a bowl of Scottish Flake in the Kaywoodie Relief Grain apple and there's a glass of cold water on the side.

Since there is no emoji, I’m assuming you’re not being silly…   See the post right before yours.  Kaywoodie logo stamping and inking faults.

Just now lighting my first pipe of the day, my PS82 blend. I’ve been in a fog all day. Last night as I was going to bed, I checked on the cat and possum food I leave on my front porch and there was a skunk there eating. As I was watching him, the possum came up the steps for dinner and when he came around the corner of the railing, he apparently startled the skunk, which sprayed him right in the face, which was also the direction of my door.

The skunk left, the poor possum was hacking and couldn’t see and instantly my whole house stunk incredibly strong. I was up for another hour spraying my porch with vinegar to try and cut the smell, but all of my efforts were only partially successful. I could barely sleep. At least the smell is about 90% gone now.

2006 McClelland Blakeney’s Best Acadian ribbon in my new Radice Rind Oom Paul. It was an estate pipe that was very lightly** smoked, close to new.

Good evening fellow pipers. Having a bowl of Royal Yacht in the ManXMan Zulu, African Meerschaum made by Peterson on the Isle of Man I believe... She’s a great little smoker, and I call it a she, because like a woman, it gets hot to handle if you get too aggressive when smoking. Small sips with long pauses in between... slow and easy... 

A large ice water alongside...

Reading  Return of the Gods... Pandora in the background with some classical music 🎼 ... 

Nice pipe Urb. I like the grain!!

Thanks, John. I certainly enjoy it.

Yeah, my dog had an eye infection so she had the plastic cone collar to keep her from scratching her eyes. A skunk sprayed her in the face and it funneled to her head, came in the house dripping skunkjuice.
Found out that tomato juice is an old wife fable.
That sucked.

We poisoned the skunk and the city workers hauled it off.

Out and about with the family tonight. Went to a festival that a local Greek Orthodox church puts on every year. Managed a couple bowls of Friar's Bayou in the Thursday cob while there. On the back porch now, Barking Road in a sandblasted Savinelli Nonpareil bent billiard.
