Didn't cool off much last night. 66F before sunrise and cloudy. First smoke is Dunhill Flake in a smooth 1/4 bent 1982 Dunhill Rhodesian with a Cumberland stem and drinking Trader Joe's coffee. Coast to Coast going off the air, switching to NPR on the radio. Going for a walk at sunrise.

Part way through this bowl of Old Companion in a smooth 1998 Parker 489 three quarter bend Billiard and a black vulcanite stem. I may finish the day with this smoke.
Every time I smoke this blend, Molly suddenly shows up. There's something about the aroma of this blend that she really likes.
