We had another great ModelMaina yesterday. To all the guys that worked to put the show together, for the guys that came out Saturday morning to set up the venue and then came in to take it all down, thank you for your work and dedication to the show. To all the guys that volunteered to judge, you got it done on time and did it well. Thank you for your hard work.

We couldn't have had such a great show without all of you. Again thank you all.

Visited the new Hobbytown in Spring. It just opened. If you like Gundam, they have plenty of kits. They have RC cars and planes, Legos, wargaming, and a Millennium Falcon. Didn't see any other Star Wars. No scale models, except some paper models of wildlife. Had no paint, no cement or tools. So, if want to build your Gundam you'll have tools somewhere else. Left slightly disappointed. I don't plan on going back anytime soon.
