    Thanks, I had forgotten about that post!

    When I was growing up in W.Mass, I met Eastman & Laird at a local comic book store at some point. I still have some of the TMNT comics somewhere - can't remember if they signed any or not, it was a *very* long time ago.

    I was able to order a GE Synik 30 in Navy and an HLT2 in Seapine Green Thursday. Super thrilled to get a new bag for my Mac, and use my GE Synapse as a non-tech bag. Now anxiously awaiting a confirmation link so I can watch it travel across the country to me...

    Waiting on a burnt orange YD. I've wanted one ever since they came out and I saw that adorable photo of a child lugging his mini Yeoman around. No more minis in orange though so I got a small. My DD does not like orange so I think that means this one will be safely mine. If my Paypal tree was endlessly fruitful I'd go ahead and complete the set with the other two sizes! But, am not planning a trip any time soon, much less one which requires carrying a small elephant or a watermelon.

    Still debating whether I need a "backup" Luminary 12. (I already have two, to say nothing of my other TB packs! )

    I think that was my favorite part about the surprise pouch thing-discovering new colors that you might not have looked at before. I got a Steel (I'm pretty sure) ballistic pouch for mine, it's a pretty nice color. Sad to see that 1050d ballistic isn't going to be around at all for much longer.

    After delivery delays due to the protests, I received mine last night. Today I packed up the large ones and stowed them... one has the bedding, pillow, blanket, towels, etc for when I have to break out the Aerobed for a guest; another holds the extra sheet set & blanket for my bed; my previous large holds quilts & such. Super useful.

    I just joined the club and stocked up my YDs with a medium in Steel. So sad to see them go, I really love their sheer simplicity!

    Hopefully you received your shipping confirmation right away. I know the feeling because I saw that black was available again in the Pick-Up Truck so I got one to go with the aubergine and burnt orange that already made their way home. This one will sit on ottoman in the living room. Should have just ordered them all at once!

    Sorry you missed out on the Aubergine but Nebulous Grey is a very nice alternative. Got my UPS shipment and I LOVE the Pick-Up truck ... ordered another one in Burnt Orange. Larry went to Oregon State for a while and their colors are orange and black so it will have a home who appreciates it.

UPS usually comes in the afternoon and neither of those colors have reached the only a few left status so hopefully they'll last. I think the PickUp truck is adorable but just not sure if it is big enough so want to see it in person. I kept looking at Viridian last night but couldn't pull the trigger. I love Island but think the 525 ballistic might be better fabric choice.

    Don't worry G42. That grass PickUp Truck has found a good home. Mine.
