    Yes sir, looking forward to tomorrow.
    :yes:

    Edit.. You were the obvious guess/choice.
    Although if it was homemade pizza.. A warning woulda been in order.

    :drool:

    You're very welcome Dave. I didn't know what you might need vs what you already have. But I knew it would be for reloading.

    Glad you got something you wanted/needed.
    :cool:

    That was my cheat.. I asked Dave what he needed, and he was non-committal.

    Nice thing about Midway is that the gift card is emailed.. no bein late on delivery.

    My SS delivered a Fiskars Pickaroon.
    I don't think I'll store it in the truck bed, but it will come with me on the tree job tomorrow, I'll be moving and rolling logs all over the place.
    Stephiedoll I think?

    Love it though, will try it tomorrow!!

    Morning, and Merry Christmas to the FHC family.
    :santa::campfire:

    My Santa sent me a nice FHC decal for the new truck, some homemade maple syrup, and a gift card for Tractor Supply.
    :cool:

    Time to restock the bar oil.
    :thumbs:

    But the nicest gift was the letter sent with.
    Thank you Scotty Overkill

    A couple felling wedges (never have owned one. Always made my own out of wood) and a nice Stihl ski cap. Thank you secret Santa, awesome gifts! :handshake::santa: Merry Christmas to you and yours. IMG_4552.JPG

    3 pairs of work gloves! Or possibly one pair, with 2 extra left gloves, you know how that goes.

    They are just what I needed. I have been working on a stone bridge over a mud hole on the trail that we’ve been building. Stone work can be pretty hard on the gloves.

    Well I finally opened my SS gift (from a SS in Wisconsin), it's a very nice (and heavy) steam engine stocking hanger (engraved "Scotty"), and a knit stocking featuring a hearth scene with pups around the fire! Looks good on the hearth, don'tcha think??

    I was good and did not open my SS present until after lunch today.

    Now I have to figure out who my SS is this year. I wonder if it is Stephiedoll who might be using a friends address to throw me off. Both the Swiss Army knife and the flashlight will see good use. Thanks SS:santa::santa::handshake:

    I have been looking at one of those, not necessarily fiskers brand but just one in general!

    Hope you didn't throw the box away, there was a Spyderco knife wrapped in Christmas paper included with the gloves
