It's that time of year again. How'd y'all celebrate International Pipe Smoking Day?

I'm beat from busy-ness but recovering. I am making time to enjoy a bowl of GLP Caravan in an old GBD. Image

Enjoying some old school Five Brothers in my Grandpa's old 55+ year old Weber I had refinished. On this #IPSD2019. He passed away the year before I was born. Wish I could share some of this with him. Mom says it was some of his favorite, when he could afford it. Mostly smoked home grown I hear.

My gosh that old generation was amazing. They've got their share of issues, no doubt, but growing and curing their own tobacco is crazy commitment. I'm pretty sure I'd have given it up instead of grown it myself. Amazing.

Most of my family smoked their own home grown tobacco, but it was because most everyone in my neck of the woods grew tobacco as all/part of their income (so it just made sense because it was always at hand and cheap). I still have a twist of tobacco that my grandfather had left on his cabinet before he died - 33 years ago. It's a dried up crispy relic, but it still sticks around my eclectic mix of junk I've hung on to all these years.

This is exceptionally awesome.

Now that I dig around for this old pic, I feel a bit of deja vu like I've mentioned this or posted the pic in the past. Forgive me if so. I have a tumor....

Well I am finally getting this post up. I was a day late for IPSD 2019 but had a Yello Bole of Nording's Labrador packed in the living room and smoked on a windy day out back. IPSD should really wait for the weather to clear up more :P

Never before and absolutely stunning. That looks like a mega culebra cigar, not pipe tobacco.
