Hurry back Fedex guy, I want my kite!

SpecialK - 29-5-2014 at 07:52 AM

Fedex was supposed to deliver an HQ Montana VII 9m yesterday, but by the time I got to the door they had already gone and left nothing but a piece of paper. Now I have to wait till they get here today, and of course, I'm not seeing any winds. Life is unfair!

But I can't wait to see how foil life compares to d'arc side...

Nothing sucks worse than seeing that sticker on the door and knowing the kite is in no man's land till the next day!

I have driven through my neighborhood to track down the FedEx guy.
:evil: :D

BeamerBob: I blame you! :)
cheezy: If I was quick on my feet, I might have done that..
elnica: So true.

pyro: That sounds more serious than a kite :o

Whooohooo delivered! Thanks, fedex guy! Now who do I speak to about getting some wind going?

Ha, I just ordered a Montana 9m also. Did you get it from dakites? They were on super sale.

pyro22487 - 29-5-2014 at 04:00 PM

It was more serious lol. 11 turtles about an 1"-2" across each I had to get them that morning that wouldn't have servived in the back of that truck in the heat of the day. I chased the stupid truck for like 1 hour those guys are maniacs...

My regular UPS guy also delivers where I work and drives right by my flying field.. He'll deliver to me either place if he sees me..He rides by my flying field around early lunch time.. He'll wave if he sees me flying also..My home is the latter part of his route so if our paths cross, I often get my stuff a few hours early..
