Testimonial

#031 has arrived.  My wife chuckled every time I descended into our downstairs office because she knew I was getting on the computer and going to the UPS tracking site.
 
I watched as #031 went from Durham to Knoxville to Memphis to Little Rock and, at last, on the truck in Hot Springs.  I saw the truck as it pulled in the driveway and met "Brown" with the TKL box.  The much anticipated event was about to occur . . . then I read the small label:  "Allow the shipping container as well as the contents to reach room temperature before opening to avoid harm to the contents" (or something to that effect).  Drats!  More waiting. 
 
The pictures don't do justice.  The sound bites don't quite cut it.  It's beautiful.  It sounds great.  Thanks for your labors over #031.  I look forward to many years of "standing on the corner with my mouth poked out" and frailing away!
