I'm a convert! 😆 Have enough now for a five day rotation.

How does a 5-day rotation work? You have one you smoke all day and then another for the next day? If you have one more you could smoke two of them all day and then complete the cycle every 3 days to start over. So many options...

I've found myself generally smoking the same pipe all day, so if I had two more I'd have enough for a full seven day rotation. Right now I'll be just rotating through every five days.

Thanks, Padre. 😁 It's a simple, yet effective method. I like simplicity.

The third pot I've gotten recently. It's a Whitehall, and a tad on the small side.
