Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to invite everyone to come over and see two fellow Armorama member at our vendor table at the KC IPMS National. Stop over at the Horners Hobbies Tables and say Howdy and introduce yourselves. Well have plenty to purchase at great prices and would love to put names to the "avatars". So stop bye and say howdy to the guys from Kentucky and Ohio, were sure to say howdy back.

Best Wishes,
Walter Schneider and Alan Horner

Horners Hobbies

Really want to make Alan's Day. Ask him about his days as a TC on an M60A3 in the Fulda Gap with 5-68 armor.

Hello Ragnar:

I hope I get a chance to swing by your vendor's table. And we're so glad
that you are making the trip. Kansas City is a very friendly town. Typical
of the Heartland of America. I will state however that you have written
IPMS KC regional in your heading. Of course, this is the once a year
National event for IPMS/USA . . . and next july/august 2007 it will be on the
West coast of America with the IPMS Orange County modelers. . . altho
I don't thing I have their official name correct here. I've written down
Horner Hobbies on my list of Big A members along with Wardog,
General Zod, Red 4, and Cmdr Cody. You will be able to tell the Miami
Jayhawk by my small name tag "The Miami Jayhawk" I'll have on my
shirt collar. See you in a couple of days. Bring very thin and cool clothing
as it is hotter that hades in KC now.

I stopped by and picked up a Tamiya M4 Early. It's not the most anticipated kit at the show but it's an oldie and goodie that i need.

I agree with Bob K 100% on that one Since moving here to Kansas in 2003 my wife and I picked Jack Stack as our favorite BBQ.

I am trying to convince her that it would make a nice yearly trip for us to attend the Nationals as a couple. Shes not a modeler but that shouldn't prevent us from having fun.

I am so glad I got to go to the best place for BBQ in KC. I highly recommend it. Prices are very reasonable. I spent less than $40 for two and that includes a healthy tip for excellent service
