    Hint 4 - Candle-lite is local, you had a famous local Candle too

    Content hint - Bark at the Dark

    Nice clues @Franfab :slight_smile:

    I'm down to 5 possible shippers. 1 hasn't left any clues.

    Not sure if I can fit everything into 1 box, need to do a test run tonight.

    I can’t imagine any famous candles around Modesto, so @brewnic are you my sender?

    As of this morning I was down to 5 possible senders. There are players from NY on woman's soccer team, so can cross off @MunsonRoyE. After spending 45 minutes unscrambling my brain, and decoding @Franfab hints, I can safely cross him off the list. One person hasn't left a clue, and the other has been vague.

    That leaves @Eziel. Gonna say the operative word in clue 4, is "had." Meaning the famous candle is no longer there, or the person no longer lives where the famous candle is. I may be overthinking this, but going with the latter. So, @Eziel, are you my sender??

    Content hint: The theme seems to be “purple”. Also, Day 0. Also 2 bottles or cans most days. Also, you should see how quickly Canada can hook you up with a liver transplant.

    1) Every hint always begins with this one. Sending North!
    2) Not a new newbie.
    3) Only been to your state once, and that was last year.
    4) Tickets to a regional airport near you would run me about $400, but a larger airport near you is cheaper- around $150.
    5) Meeting up with @HeartofMiami this afternoon to grab your last bootle, target. Box will be making a ~1500 mile trip to your door, leaving today!
    6) Dropped the box off at lunch today, so it's going to be a little late. But I don't think thats a problem. Arrival with plenty of time for the 6 days celebration.

    Pretty quiet in here :confused:

    Hint 6 - almost to lucky number 10

    Content Hint - boxes are packed. Ship Monday. I hope 17 wrapped bootles for the 6 days are ok with you.

    Like this comment if that is ok.

    Don't like this comment if you want me to post random peach emojis on Slack.

    You're 1 of 3 people I have left on my potential sender list.
    1 is very unlikely, 1 hasn't posted, and you. :slight_smile:

    7) And I’m fairly certain you have gotten a handshake tick with said person. More than once, most likely.
