Captain Black original in a Dr Grabow Grand Duke. The thunder storms have all headed east and the sky has cleared off. I haven't seen a wet year like this since I 70s.
@Ron191 ~ I think all of Kansas is soggy. More storms on the way here tonight and tomorrow. I’m not sure where all the water is going to go. So much flooding as it is. Stay dry and stay safe.
Decided to celebrate Memorial Day by breaking out my Cob Nation General Cob. I don't get to smoke this pipe often, but with the long weekend, I felt it was appropriate. Mixed some Rattray's Bagpipers Dream and C&D's Shandygaff for a pretty good smoke. Hope everyone is having a good holiday!
Starting to come out of a real nasty sinus infection. Looks as if 3 or 4 more days (guessing) before I can start the briar again. It's already been 5 days of exile. I'm just hoping for no setbacks...🤨
See now, I don't know whether to click on LIKE(I, TOO, HOPE YOU HAVE NO SETBACKS) or DISLIKE (I SYMPATHIZE, AND DON'T LIKE WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH YOUR SITUATION). This conundrum is, I think, how I earned many of my posts' DISLIKES.
@mfresa ~ That sounds like an interesting blend. I have quite a bit of Pirate Kake cellared and enjoy it on its own. I will occasionally mix it with light English blends to add some “oomph”. I’ve never mixed it with a VaPer but might just try it!
@Kmhartle, I find stoved Virginia to be irresistible, so experiment by combining it with other tobaccos. It sweetens up the mix without adding artificial flavors. Speaking of which, I'm going to go get some right now

Hope everyone is having a good Memorial Day weekend.
Thanks @Kmhartle for your kind thoughts. The storm missed and all we got was light rain out of it.
It seems with warmer weather the simple straight forward tobaccos are more appealing to me than something more heavily cased.
