Re: The route of X: when will it arrive? Any sabotage along the way?

CalNature…

I ordered an EM1.2 plus 12-40 f/2.8 Pro the same day you ordered your kit. I also had it shipped free via FedEx Ground. I ship to my office here in Fresno, but since I was gone the early part of last week, it made no sense to pay for air shipping, then not be there when it arrived.

I was originally given a scheduled arrival date of March 1 (last Friday), which was just fine by me. However, on that date my package only made it from Belen NM to Peach Springs AZ. I've been to Peach Springs. Not much there.

On Saturday, my package made it to Bakersfield. Yesterday, my package made it Stockton, no doubt passing within a couple of miles of me. Why Stockton? Of course, my package didn't make it back to Fresno today and FedEx updates so far don't provide a new arrival date.

I'm supposed to go out with some friends on Saturday to shoot wildflowers, rain or shine (rain likely), so I hope it arrives sooner rather than later so I can start to figure it out. Either way, I will be bringing my E-5 kit.
