I was a good monkey and waited until yesterday to open the gifts from @gonefirefightin

Lots of good stuff from his oregon

USPS was supposed to deliver the package I sent today but it seems to be stuck in the void.

Found my package stuffed full when I opened the box I received in the mail.

Funnily enough, my wife has degree in entomology and used to have a solid collection of insects she pinned herself.

Nice work Elf!

Awesome mix of beers, what smells like goooood coffee, turtles and very exclusive RM coasters.
No handle though, just the real name on the shipping label. I think it's @Westy but I don't know fo sho.

THANKS! most excellent.

Those coasters look verrrrry familiar

Do we have any understandings about using people's real names? I'm guessing based on Seattle, and the blood-soaked rags that the beer cans were wrapped with.

Was me, wasn't trying to be secretive, I am just lazy and unorganized.

FYI, the blood was artisanaly curated from fair trade free range sources. Not that commercial shit.

Always love seeing the array of local things. I didn't know Rogue made a whiskey.

That death star glass is pretty cool looking, and 3 Floyds is usually

The shadow box with the bike parts is super creative, too!

Look, sometimes we have to shop for assholes. It's part of the Secret Santa tradition.

OK, OK, I followed your advice. Hope that dude likes it.

Thank You @TreeSaw!!
The toffee is delicious. So are/were the brews. Kiddo has claimed one for the cups as hers.

UPS says my glorious package should be gently delivered tomorrow.

Yeah!!! Glad you liked everything! The bike puzzle comes from a little shop in Lake Placid that has a bunch of cool puzzles. Happy New Year!!!

@Nick seems to have had his package in transit forever thanks to the holiday, but it finally got here!

Awesome haul with 3 local crowlers of IPA that look amazing. Is noon too early to start drinking on a work day?

Would love to hear the story of the (apparently hand-painted) hat, and is the honey yours or someone you know?

Sanchez loved the honey and tolerated the hat

hey BV. So glad that finally arrived, and sorry for the delay!

the IPAs are all great and award winning CO brews. I hope you like them.
The hand painted cap is by a local artist Danielle Leckron. Her website is down but she does amazing work, all mountain themed. Her large format paintings of CO and UT are incredible. That hat is of the front side of a local ski area called Arapahoe Basin, as seen when coming down Loveland Pass.
Finally the honey is by a friend who keeps bees. It's the best honey I've ever had, incredibly fresh and 100% CO happy bee-made.

thanks for everything you do here. Cheers!
