Pain is knowing your FedEx delivery is on "hold for pick up"
I've been off site all week for work and I managed to pull the trigger on my very first AP.
Had to have it shipped to my closest hub for pickup after hours. All day Wednesday I had to stare at my phone that said "held for pick up". It was torture! Late Wednesday I was off to FedEx to pick it up. Wrapped up work for the week so I am finally able to relax and enjoy my first AP. A special thanks to Thomas (TSW) and Paul (Texex91) for guidance and a big bump for DavidSW who made everything very easy and comfortable - I appreciate the help from all. Already planning #2 - I just love it. |

CONGRATS on Diver--what a great choice Thomas
  HOLDS and delays from FedEx are the most annoying--but always worth the wait when the sender is DSW!!

Told myself next one would be Safari then 15400 or 15300. I may have to find my way to an AD (none by me) so I am looking for an excuse for a Chicago or Vegas trip. Once I saw Paul's 44 CF - I might be done for - I need to see that and the SS version in the flesh |
