I booked hotel today at the Red Roof Inn!  Looking forward to the open house show! I'm not bringing anything I've done, but will be getting my refurbished/freshly customized models back and will have one or two on display. I'm working on details with Chuck in order to display a VERY large one!  -Alex

Dave Dave your getting started too early. It's much more fun when you wait till the last minute. I think I'm just gonna pack up my sandbox full of old Joal models and call that a diorama. Save some refreshments for when I get there Saturday. Shane

We should arrive Friday evening. Art, I'm looking forward to seeing your collection!  Saturday we will stay for a bit of the auction to see things get started, but then will head up to Cleveland to check out the Rock&Roll Hall of Fame museum. -Alex

Gang,
In case you guys missed it - there will be a fantastic collection of construction-related postcards and matchbooks at the show this year courtesy of Cousin Arty (ARTCAT). If you have related material bring it by for trading purposes - or just stop by and take a look!

Would be nice if you also could show a 1:50 replica. Perhaps the next model produced by TWH............? Wouter

Ulf Construction had hoped to make an appearance this year, but we are presently involved in some minor litigation down here. Our lawyers are confident both lawsuits will be dismissed shortly...
