I know we're waiting for the recipient of my mission to confirm, but according to the USPS tracking information, my package was delivered on 4/Dec/23 at 1:24pm.  The website has pretty detailed information, so I believe this is correct.  

 

Hopefully, my recipient has been on an extended Holiday and hasn't gotten to all the mail yet, and not something more.....

[+qqnonrev]

All confirmed by their recipients.  Thanks for another great mission!!!  Hope everyone had a great holiday and has a great 2024!
