I don't know why but a package arrived today and on the outside of the box was just the name Kubota. I checked the return address and it is from Kubota in Grapevine Texas. I even checked the postage and it also was mailed from 76051. My first thought getting a package from Kubota that wasn't expected, was it a pipe bomb? The package was too light for that, so I swallowed deeply as I slit open the tape on the bottom of the box and gently pried the cover back. I was shocked, surprised, and very pleased with what was inside. I have to go answer the phone, my wife is calling. To be continued.......
What did you get for Christmas or your holiday?

I got nothing.
Our kids and significant others are scattered both coasts. One couple is local.
No grandchildren.
Since it’s quite a challenge for them to travel, we stopped the gift-giving thing several years ago. Makes the atmosphere much more relaxed. We eat really well.
If there were grandchildren would be different.

Got a healthy family….perfect gift.
They, as usual, got way more stuff, some costly, than planned.

Two of my nieces figured I could use some tractor themed stuff. I like practical presents so these two work for me.
Well, I treated myself to a new laptop - coming tomorrow. Since we are going to FL for a couple of months and I have a new camera that I plan on fully exercising, I needed a laptop to download and do some quick limited editing of the images. The laptop I have is my semi former company's. I still do some consulting for them and my login / email are both still good but I don't feel right schlepping it down there.
Just experimenting with the camera I've shot over 3500 images of my birdfeeder in a few days, so serious shooting down there is going to require a lot of storage.

It came to me last night while I was tossing and turning why this was sent to me. It isn't something that I can divulge at present. Only time will tell if it materializes.

@DustyRusty - - while you can not divulge right now, I'll offer my own humble theory which I believe to be wrong.
Looks like something someone might receive from dealership after a significant purchase of equipment. Congratulations on the tractor purchase you didn't make...?!?!?.
That said, it's from Kubota Corporation in Texas; well-removed from your location in the east. Not a local dealership you bought from.
When you can, be very curious......looks like Corporate is offering gratitude for something....????
If so good for you.
My daughter is a Subaru 'Ambassador'. She gets that kind of tsatske (trinkets) to pass out to Subi owners especially at meetups.
Worked.
spent a little bit of time with my mom who's got a brain tumor & and my brother at mom's house for a couple hours. Went back to work afterwards. Apparently I wasn't very good last year cause Santa didn't bring me nothing. But that's ok cause I gave more than I got, and I enjoy that part more than getting gifts. Just have to work extra to pay for it all. A lot extra.
