…the Lightning Maroon’s new home is shipping out Monday.  Spoke to the man himself who said he’ll be packing it personally himself this time.  I did not ask for an anticipated arrival time.  It will arrive when the time is right. If you’ve been following all along,  you may recall that the first “new home” […]
