    Dear SS,

    Thank you so much for the ride journal! I will most definitely use it! I just received the package yesterday and I'm already halfway through the Koontz book you sent. It is soooo good....and the gum and energy bloks! You're awesome! Now just who are you on TE????

    To my SS, I mailed it today so it should be there later this week!

    Thank you!

    To my SS,

    I can't figure out who you are!!! Sorry about the belated posting, I hadn't mailed mine out yet and I wanted to wait to open what you sent until I sent my package out. Guilt...so to the recipient of mine, it is going next day and will be there tomorrow!!

    SS, thank you so much! I can definitely use the Shot Bloks and the propel. As a matter of fact, I was/am having a shot blok shortage so it's perfect! And the books? They both look great!!! I'm going on a long plane trip tonight and I am taking one of them (haven't figure out which one yet but I think it'll be the cycling one) with me. It looks funny and I need the motivation right around now

    Thank you again, whoever you are!

    p.s. I love mysteries also, that was an excellent choice!

    Thank you Teigyr

    Teigyr, I came home tonight after a bike ride that never ended. I lugged my girl up on the deck and there's a pkg. at my door. I thought, another pkg. for DH, he's always getting parts sent to him. But no, it was for ME. I threw my bike inside, well, not really. And rushed to open the box. Thank you so much..I can't wait to read the Taku book..that sounds very interesting. I flipped thru the Seattle book twice so far, it's amazing what time and modernization does to towns. The cherries were scrumptious. I popped one in my mouth and savored it with some coffee. Havent tried the covered pistachios yet. I will have to hide these treats from DH, he'll have them gone in no time. The note was sweet also. THANK YOU SO MUCH..loved everything..

    THANK YOU F8TH637. I was busy outside (filling my bird feeders and baths) when my DH came out and told me I just got a VERY HEAVY PACKAGE from FE. WOW, I mean WOW. The Smithsonian BIRDS of NA is one beautiful book. DH said I definitely have my winter reading. I have already looked up my 'gotcha' birds, the chickadee and lesser goldfinch. The lesser has me intrigued these days because this summer I have been enjoying so many of the 'little guys' at my nyger bags. I am really looking forward to reading "Metal Cowboy" and may take it with me on my trip to Wyoming this weekend. I really should read 'birding basics' because I know very little about birds, I am really a classic 'backyard' birder. And Lance, I will save that for a day where I can pop a dvd in and enjoy. Thank you again. Your note was very personal and thank you again for taking the time to write it.

    You are so very welcome, sbctwin! I was a little worried that you might have so many birding books but to hear that you are a 'backyard' birder really puts me at ease and I hope that I gave you some books that will help you become a 'serious' birder. We have a lot of those chickadees and goldfinches in the area and especially in my neighborhood because many people have bird feeders outside. I have some pictures I took of the birds that I wanted to send you but I wanted to get it to you by the end of the month. I really hope you enjoy "Metal Cowboy" as I have. I'm so glad to hear that all my gifts were well-received and right on time. Enjoy!

    Hi Teigyr - I'm pretty sure I'm your SS! I wasn't sure who you were on TE as my SS PM only gave your real name and not your TE name! I'm sorry I was so late in getting it to you. I have no excuse as it sat in the box on my counter for much longer than it should have! I'm glad you liked it and I hope you enjoy the books.

    Sounds good to me, CC. I didn't participate in the Christmas Card exchange last year so I'll need complete instructions.

    someone also mentioned doing a water bottle exchange - how about we do both? your thoughts?

    Gaaaaa!!! I just saw CC's post. My first SS exchange and I've screwed it up somehow! I had to wait on Amazon's slow a** and now the package hasn't arrived. Woe is me.... . Please give it a few days and if you haven't received it let me know. I'm sorry!

    Thanks! And BOY do I know how long boxes sit out at my house. I was busy trying to remove cat hair from the box I sent to my SS. I read the first book, Heft on Wheels, while on a trip to Syracuse. It was great and I had it finished by the time I got home The next one is for vacation, next week.

    Thank you again SO much and now I can thank you in person, as it is.

    Thank you so much UK Elephant!! I love the cookbook and have already eyed some desserts to make. I really only like to bake. I plan to read the other book on a long road trip we are taking soon, looks like a fun one.

    Umm.... My package isn't complete. I got part of it but have been swamped at work and haven't gotten all I want in it.
