One never knows. You would think in a small town they would be happier. I think it was just the luck of the draw.

Let's see what happens with FedEx. I placed a Hausermann order Jan 29 of this year. I told them I was in no rush, and they should ship it whenever they thought the weather would be OK.
FedEx picked it up in Villa Park, Illinois, today at 4:37 pm (about a half hour before I write this.) According to the US Weather Service, right now it is 54 F / 12C in Villa Park. Tonight's low there is predicted 45 F / 7C. I won't tell you what my weather is like; I'm trying to be kind.
I hope my shipment doesn't also decide to take a cruise to Alaska.

Good luck. I should know where it goes but I have forgotten. I know all FedEx air freight goes to one place then out from there. Is it Memphis? I just can't remember. I ship out wild game during hunting season all over the US. And we ship it all FedEx, there pretty good about it. We don't have to many mess ups.

What I like about FedEx Ground and Home delivery is the time-definite service. Here's the service map for packages shipping from me; it's available to anyone:

Well, no updates today. It still shows my package left the original FedEx facility at 3:40 am yesterday - no more information. I hope it didn't go out for a cigarette and decide to try and find someplace open for a beer and a bratwurst sandwich.

I find that if it is on a truck being driven straight to the post office/closest sorting facility, there is no new information until it arrives and gets scanned. I think of it as a good sign. It will probably be delivered tomorrow, just on schedule.

Now it says the package arrived at the Phoenix facility at 5:13 pm tonight. It should arrive during business hours tomorrow. Hope they don't do any fire drills or evacuation practices.

At least it didn't take a detour through Alaska. That adds 2 days
