vicrider 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2015 I will be working on lining things up over the weekend but won't be doing final work and sending out until next week. If anyone is running late and thinking of dropping out...DON'T...Just get it in the mail ASAP. The worse thing that could happen is you'll end up having to trade gifts with me and I'll try to keep ya' from being disappointed. St. Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2015 Okay guys. The week extension got a few more in but at this time I had to turn everything around and let 'er fly. Got to PO today with about 20 packages to weigh and tag so kept my niece busy for awhile. Surprisingly no one came in behind us that had to wait while we worked our way through this. Everything is on it's way but I should mention that after I got all the last packages wrapped and tagged I don't know who really got what. Yes, they are all marked but hopefully I didn't send a bunch of salt water crabs to a dry fly brookie fisherman. I tried to align the early wraps but things got hectic. I will say though that there were NO NONE boxes that should be a disappointment to anyone. Also a few boxes were truly outstanding and this year rather than a Santa Surprise I got a good deal on a big grab bag package and everyone should have a little dubbing or Congo Hair or bug legs from Santa. These are not wrapped so you can take them right to the table and tie something with it. You can open shipping package but inisde wrapped package is to be saved until at least Christmas Eve. Those in from last year will notice that my ability to wrap has not improved any and lots of tape to hold things in place is my standard system. So, Santa's going to take a nap now, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jolly Red 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2015 Had a big surprise in the mail today, a well wrapped Christmas present! This will be hard to keep from opening in the next 3 weeks, but I'll try to be strong. I want to thank Nick for the time he has spent this last year in all the swaps he has hosted. And thanks to AGN54 for the present, whatever it turns out to be. And Merry Christmas to all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djtrout 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2015 Received my flies yesterday; thanks to Branden_******! Now begins the waiting, or not, we are an empty nest and don't really do the Santa thing in a disciplined way ... but I'll leave it wrapped for the time being ... to think about it ... I usually get into trouble when I think about it. Merry Christmas all! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
