Cool Arch....you should get her back soon. I'm going to wait until after the New Year/send mine in. With Decfest coming and post orders to that/a good thing! .... + Then, the Holidays....I won't be able to part with my ZMA till January. $1530 + shipping to and from....worth it.
ZMA is warmed up...nice being home from work at 3! But, I start at 6 am.
Anywho, ZMA time! ....with a new found favorite: VELVELTEEN HABIT, IPA...from Ale Asylum. HEAVEN, after a long day (with ZMA)!
