I drove over to the Port of Tampa and tried to buy my 8lbs/cu ft yesterday and SPI was closed.
I did get a lovely shaker at Sam Ash at the Kapok Tree Pavilion:
I think I paid full price but the cool thing is that I got to try, heck I don't know, maybe 40 different make-models of shakers before I decided this one was my personal shaker nirvana.
I turned on a Mexican music radio station for the drive home and worked on my shaking!
best regards,
mike
