And it's here. I threw caution to the wind and opened the very cold case in our sauna of an office to take a peek. It's pretty sweet. Nice flame. The green color is a little darker than I expected. My computer at home is being jerky this week so I probably won't be able to post pics until that's sorted out, sorry gang.

Uh-huh - Sounds suspiciously like you want to keep it all to yourself for awhile...

I can vouch for Jason's description. It is a really dark Green with really nice wood. The longer you look at it the better looking it gets. I kept reaching for my walet when I saw it at POTR. Nice snag Jason!

Who needs a coat? It's +36F out there!

Seriously, I suppose the temperature of the UPS truck isn't that much different than outside, probably warmer.

Then again, my "music room", which is in the old part of the house, built in the 1930's before they knew what insulation was all about, the thermometer there says it's 44F.

Do you think it'd be ok to open it up out there? I wouldn't think a short time would be a huge deal with that small a temperature change...
