PJ,
Your package is lost for sure.
There is nothing more frustrating than
tracking it from NJ to PA to Toledo to Chicago
to 'out for delivery' and then not arrive.
Worse yet, have them retract 'out for delivery'
the next day, and then say 'later'.

I like the way you shot her, and the original is good. I like a couple of the
first few with minor revisions. But the final result appears way overdone and
