    That one got me as well...SoCal and Texas could both be considered southwest.

    Well, thanks to hints about milking cows and starts with a "T" and ends in "exas" I'm pretty sure @Doogflaggat and @MikeMcGraw are shipping to the Lone Star state. I suspect the third Texas box is coming from @Greeny87 and myself or @Avelasquez80 will be receiving live chickens at work on Wednesday.

    Yeah, I'm waiting to see who it is that's gonna be receiving it lol...its funny because I grew up in a town that has a large chicken producing facility, Holmes Foods, so I laughed even more at the chicken comment.

    The point is that even Sacremento could be considered "southwest" from Massachusetts for hint giving purposes.

    If my brother came through with some fresh off the teet "Live (type of tree)" from Austin, then I anticipate having this box shipped tomorrow!

    I should be shipping tomorrow. My trip to a bicycle themed brewery was a success.

    :grinning: Sadly, I couldn't go through with the "LIVE CHICKENS : Open Immediately". My local FedEx would have gotten way to curious. Maybe some day.

    I guess we will find out on Wednesday.

    I'm shipping this week too- I have 2 more wants on their way that I'm going to throw in, and might try to hunt down one more...

    To my target : I hope you are okay with quality over a huge quantity because I just pulled out the beers I am sending you and.... Damn... Any sour head would love this box.

    I will be shipping either tomorrow or Wednesday. Getting the box all put together now.
    Cheers guys

    Shipping very soon. I'm thinking on the 21st. I'm waiting for one of the breweries to put the base beer for the barrel aged version I'm sending back on. If it's not out before then, I'll send what I have plus some extra stuff. Then, once back on, I'll send a separate box with at least a crowler if not two of that beer plus more stuff. Porch should be smiling by the end either way.

    Whelp, brother failed to come thru, so I'm debating on shipping now and following it up with another porch bomb or waiting another week and getting this bad boy out! Decisions decisions!!

    Started to package everything up over the weekend. Just enough room for another bottle or two. I'll have to make a stop in the next few days and see what I can find.

    Because I finally decided to use a spreadsheet and try to figure out who my sender is. I have it harrowed down to 4 people, 1 of those being unlikely. @core42 @jrs3994243 @JNForsyth and @Elkevjoe.

    Just incase it wasn't clear enough . I am shipping to the current home of Giancarlo Stanton. On a side note I went to High School with (Mike) Giancarlo Stanton and to this day he is the best high school athlete I have ever seen.

    Damn the watch thread feature has really failed me with this thread.
    Some random hints:

    - My target likes sours
    - I've been to my target's state
    - I've shipped to my target's state many times
    - My target's state touches water
    - I'm not shipping to @Andelliotsaid
    - At least one of my hints in this thread is false

    He should be, playing for that owner would drive me to drink
