Thanks again gentlemen! I have said it before and I will say it again , if it wasn't for you guys I wouldn't be where I am today. I kind of looked at the whole thing as winning one for Armorama, and I was the ambassador.
Trying to get ahold of my friend Ryan for that camera. Hey believe me, I want to show all of you it.

John17- I am in Chippewa Falls, north of Eau Claire. Pretty long way from Milwaukee.

It was the Ardennes one, with the tall pine trees, on the "juniors" table. It had the King Tiger, and the Sherman that was sitting off the road.
Just think, next year I will be out with the "big dogs", and out of the Kiddie table. I am sorry, but I am competing against 13 year olds, I am 17. Its just an age thing!

We Will Hold, do you ever go to the Eau Claire Hobby Junction? I got a gig there this summer helping out, and I probably ran into you. If you came in at all. Eau Claire. Wow! Who would of thought! You got any kids?
