Last smoke of the day is Old Colonial in a medium bend beater 1979 Aalborg natural freehand made by Nording with a black vulcanite stem. Molly got some intensive play time. I did my best to make her chase ear plugs and cat nip balls so she'd tire out, and let me smoke in peace. This time, it worked! Suzy was busy watching. Time to read baseball box scores.

Part way through this bowl of 1970s Edgeworth Aromatic (Red) in a light brown 1979 rusticated medium bend Italian Sir Jeffrey Dublin sitter with a flared top and yellow stem. The more I have smoked this blend, the more I wish it was still made.

Nice day had some " morn " mix in my Blakemar in town, had to go shopping, & grabbed some Irish Flake & a Cuban half corona from the humidor, couldn't get home quick enough, sat by the beautiful lake having more " morn " mix in my Parker Rhodesian , lamenting the lost past.
Lifting my spirits on my baby harp this vigil. Pop snoozing in the night silence, no cars. Pipedreaming. A better day tomorrow.
