    Just a quick update..

    This was my largest spending trip and shipping more stuff back than my past 3 trios combined!
    5 large Home Depot boxes with a total weight of 273 pounds!

    Fedex shipping for everything was $1700 for overnight delivery.
    Since I get a BIG discount with them, my overnight delivery cost me $407 Canadian!

    I know you love you some OPC baseball, but if you wind up with a nice Messier RC somewhere in those 273 lbs, please let me know.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Cards have already arrived but I'm still in Buffalo. Changed my flight because of the weather.
    I was supposed to get a connection flight in Chicago but changed it to Atlanta because of all the snow.
    About an hour after I changed it, the Chicago flight got delayed. I lucked out!

    Shouldn't be any snow in Atlanta!
