Stash an old radio for me?
 

Good morning, folks -

I spotted this old radio on eBay. It is very much like one my
grandfather (my father's father) bought in Vermont in 1928 or 1929, and
then of course lost in the Depression. My Dad mentioned it often, so I
have always wanted to get one.

Anyway, I wouldn't trust UPS or truck freight to move it without
breaking it. Not to mention $150 in shipping charges, of course.
Anyway, if I bought it, would you consider going up to Danbury, bringing
it back to your house, and stashing it there until we come to visit
sometime in late July?

If this is not convenient - no time, no appropriate vehicle, etc -
please feel free to say so. I don't want to put you out.

Today is, I think, the 10th consecutive day of temperatures well over
100 degrees. It is time to get out, and we will, in fact, leave on
Monday. Looking forward to our long trip around the west, then Aly's
wedding, then getting back to the beach for the summer.

Thanks

Bill Jeffrey

Sort of awkward right now -- since we are in the middle
of moving cross-state in these next couple of weeks.
Sorry.
But, thanks for sharing.

Yah. Sorry about that. Overanxious "send" finger ...
