Santa arrived a little early

[FreeSpirit]

Last night Santa dropped off a early present.
With as cold as it is outside, I'm letting it warm up slowly inside the shipping box.
Going to bed and then to work this morning without opening the box is challenging.

Oooh, oooh, what's in the box?!?! Nice to be able to share your present with you over the internet! Seriously, be patient. Open the box later and let the case acclimate too before you open it. If the latches feel cool to the touch, wait some more.

I know that everyone here recognizes the shape of that box and can pretty much guess what's inside....and it's not a new lawnmower! :wink:

Rejoice!

It's a tough wait, but well worth it.

Maybe just a peek before work? Hmm?

 

[Thunderface]

Now that's just mean, teasing us like that. :?

Heck I just open them right away in the garage where its cold. I gotta check for shipping damage and satisfy my curiosity.
Then again I take my guitars from a cold car to a warm bar and open them right up too.
Like they say- Made to be Played.

Maybe it's a 'box of rocks' he bought from that Canadian guy off Craigslist :lol: ( see Bluesypickys Pearl of a post)

But seriously, Congrats! You are wise to wait until opening, so now you can REALLY enjoy it! How are you going to go to work the next day!

Ok...it's 5:30 pm EST....if free spirit is in my time zone that box would be opened by now :lol: ...My guess is he can't put the guitar down long enough to log onto his computer. :wink:

[FreeSpirit]

So I'm on my way home from work with vision of Sugar Plum Fairies and .....
I get a call on my phone from my wife, I have to leave immediately when I get home to go to dinner with out of town relatives who are visiting.
I don't even get back into the house until after 10:30 pm.
But when I finally get back, I find.....

Imagine my surprise........Its not a gun rack....... its a

The camera battery died, and I so I went into a quiet room with my new friend.
