Christmas Ornament Exchange 2024

[ripjack13]

My wife mailed mine out. It'll show up on monday.

You durn early birds! Mine will go out today.

Worms were tasty this year - a rather piquant note to the aftertaste this year - almost truffly!

 

[SENC]

Well, I didn't realize most of our PO locations here are closed on Saturday, so it will go out today (and bring up the rear for this exchange).

Tracking on mine says it is now bouncing between two different distribution centers and "expected delivery" is today. That isn't going to happen, although it is in the correct State.

Ahhhh...gotta love Chicago!! I've had a few parcels in the ping-pong game in that Chi-town system. At least one actually traveled more miles in the Chicago area than it did to get to there. What mystifies me is that it's only the occasional parcel.

 

[trc65]

Not Chicago. My stuff normally gets out of Illinois OK, (ships through Champaign if traveling east and St Louis if West) but when it gets close to destination it starts ping ponging.

Mail came a little late today, but unwrapped an absolutely gorgeous ornament from @guylaizure

Craftsmanship is exquisite.

Maple body w/Bradford Pear finials w/black lacquer finish.
(ran downstairs to photograph it)

Outstanding Guy! Thanks so much. John

Glad it made it to you intact.I was worried that the post office would damage it.

I’m saving the box and tube you wrapped it in. All good

And to the other one left hanging out there, mine went out today. Hope that it arrives intact.

I opened the mailbox to find a box containing an wonderfully crafted bell. The details and wood are just beautiful!

Thank you John Dillon!
