Re: Good and Welfare
I am glad TPL is still going as a forum for pipe smoking information and a place to keep in touch. I only post if I have something to add to the discussion. After many years of enjoying the group, I still log on almost every day to keep up on the discussions. Thank you to all the regulars who keep the site going. I look forward to many more years of this informational and enjoyable conclave of pipe smokers. I value the free exchange of ideas even when we sometimes disagree.

Re: What are you guys smoking right Now?
I introduced my friend to pipe smoking this weekend and bought him a mm cob pipe. He really likes it. I let him try LL7 since that is easy, good tasting and leaves a good room note. I don't have pictures but we had a bourbon, a pipe on the Atlantic beach. Life is good!

The cemetery removed all flowers before the hurricane. I went this morning to place new ones and saw that the headstone had been installed. They must have done this on Tuesday.

Re: What are you guys smoking right Now?
After a nice breakfast of three thick cut bacon strips, three soft poached eggs, three slices of white toast with real butter (one with a generous portion of sweet orange marmalade), and a black cup of my home, light roasted, Ethiopian bean coffee I have my Kadesh Swanson Shield loaded with some C&D “Steamworks” and I am enjoying life immensely.

Smoking some Trafalger's, a private blend from Davis and Son. I found them while vacationing in Wilmington, North Carolina. This was a wonderful English blend from a real old school B&M.

Wanted to get out of the house earlier today. Some HU Coming Home in my Santambrigio at Whiskey and Ashe. It’s a whiskey and cigar bar about 4 miles from my house.

Re: Pipe refinishing
The “finished” dr. Grabow Westbrook lovat. Fixed the overclocked stem. Ream and deghost. Cleaned the stummel and refinished the stem. Cleaned all the internals. Also needs buffing terrible but will do for now. The silver duke needs much more work. Stem is as good as it’ll get and the inner workings of the stummel are clean. The rim took a real beating so I’ll sand that down flat and chamfer the edges. Thinking of sanding off the finish and contrast staining. Will update later.
