Hi all,
I've just returned from the convention in Pa. I must admit that I was
concerned about the"members only" rule. When we ( my dad & I) arrived, the
place was wide open! There wasn't anyone checking for membership affiliation
or seeking it! We walked right in, looked all around, set up camp, had lunch &
looked around alot more!! There were a lot of REALLY neat vehicles. ( a Davis
three wheeled personell carrier prototype,one of two built, 2 Bantam 4 wheel
steer jeeps, a myriad of WC's, caryalls, GTB's, GPA's, Tanks, Landing
crafts(2) Halftracks, etc.) . We met a bunch of very nice people, bought a few
parts for our M-718, missed out on a few more( just my luck)., pointed a
couple of people in the direction of parts they were looking for.(isn't that
what the hobbies really all about?)
Not everything was perfect(but something of this magnatude never is). BUT,
all in all, it was a REALLY NICE TIME!
I hope others can look past their petty differences & try to better the hobby
as a whole. Thats my 2 cents worth,
