A day of gentle, steady rain, and very little wind. Lovin it!

Bird report: House finch (both kinds), California scrub-jay, Dark-eyed junco, Mountain chickadee, Red-tailed hawk, Common raven, California quail, California towhee, Northern flicker, Mourning dove, White-crowned sparrow, Golden-crowned sparrow, and Steller's jay.
Thank you to everyone who supplied all the birthday wishes these past few days. Who knew 39 could bring so much fanfare?

Listening to the Tigers game, smoking some Anomalous in an Azura Rusticated Billiard.
Half way through this bowl of KBV Night Mare beta extra in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. Writing beta notes. Cleaned a few pipes, gave Abner the Eager food and attention a few minutes ago, and am watching the Braves-Guardians game.
Ahhhhhh.... Aleve, whiskey, and a pipe. Cowboy Coffee in my beloved Bones Poker. Gonna be early to bed tonight.
KBV Your Welcome in a Liskey
This afternoon I had a wonderful visit with my weekly ZOOM crew of pipe buddies. I smoked my 1891 A.D.P. pipe filled with five-year-old "And so to bed". Peach/Mango Green Tea with a splash of Honey Jack was my beverage.
An Adolph David Posener pipe appears in the Sherlock Holmes adventure, "Silver Blaze". (I wrote an article about the proper identification of this pipe that appeared in both The Baker Street Journal-Spring 2019, and The Pipe Collector-April 2020.)

Huge sushi dinner tonite. Finally home- Mcclelland Smyrna No.1 in the Charl Goussard w/ boar tusk.
Inaugural front porch sunset smoke of the year, some HH Burley Flake in a Heritage Heirloom. Only the second time smoking the Burley Flake, but really liking it. Best burley blend I've had so far.
Lane 1-Q in the Peterson Pub pipe 9mm with a pinch of Newminster 400 on top for a nic hit. I discovered something about the pub pipe today ... I got halfway through and thought the pipe had gone out as I could get no smoke despite repeated drawing. I dumped the ash preparing to relight, took a puff and voila ! it was fully lit but the ash prevented it from functioning properly. When I ran into a store later it did go out and I dumped more ash and held the lighter above the bowl ... one puff and it was fully lit again. This pipe continues to surprise and amaze me. I've never enjoyed the functional aspect of a pipe this much before. It is forcing me to learn how to smoke it which is different from my other pipes.
Preparing for UFC tonight. Clockwise... A Kaywoodie London Made loaded with my blend "Smooth Criminal". A BBB Own Make Bent loaded with Sun Bear "Mountain Flower". A Castello Stack (my wofe's pipe tomight) loaded with Black Cherry. A Magnum Lane era Charatan loaded with my blend "3Kings '23".
Low Country Natural VaOri in a Savinelli.
Bowl 41 in the figurehead, in the local lounge. 'tis Crooner.
Congratulations also to this pipe for being the third I've named - "Jeannie C", after the Stan Rogers song.

Crux Epicure cigar before a bowl of LNF with a few years on it. Haven't smoked this stuff in forever it seems. Smoking in a JP Urquiza. Enjoying with a pu'erh from 2019.
H&H Burley Kake. Tastes like a fresh bowl all the way to the end.
