Actually, I still think there is plenty of time.

Actually under a change in the rules two? three? years ago, anyone can now
mail packages directly to Pennsic by either UPS or USPS. This is how I've
gotten some of my stuff up there the last few years. I tend to not allow
enough time, plus I don't want to bother the Coopers with it if it gets there
before Pennsic, so my box has usually arrived two or three days after I do.
But you never know until it gets there, whether it will.

One of the concerns with flying in while shipping things in has been the
logistics of making sure things are packed such that if any one of the pieces
of luggage or the shipped box don't arrive, the problems are minimized. So far
everything has gotten there, but there have been some anxious times waiting
for that box.
