Pics: Chicago show.....
For those who haven't made a show yet, it's quite an experience. The show itself is a lot of fun but the weekend event and the people you meet are what really makes it special.
Thanks to Tom Kinney, who made the arrangements, we had dinner on Friday evening with a small group of guys who came to town for the show. On Saturday evening, there was a much larger group that met at a local pizza place for a great time of fellowship, pizza and drinks.
The highlights of the weekend are always the great folks you meet. At the Forum43 Hospitality Booth, we were able to meet a lot of Forum folks and had the chance to meet some new friends and get caught up with some old ones.
Steve Overy from Illustra was with us this year, a fantastic guy. Charlie Barnette came over from England again, another great guy. Mikhail Bashmashnikov of B&G, Dale Dannefer, Gregg Gunn, Bob Hooper of Dominion models, Buz Kerkel of RT 66 Models, Jim Cowen of Automodello and Howie Levine all had large and well stocked displays.
Here are some photos:

Sorry, John, but I only see a single red x, probably from my end.

Great slideshow, John, and even more fun when I went to the photobucket photos! A question: in one of the photos you identify John Styles and Randy.
Randy who? Olson? Bahler? Or another Randy?
It's just terrific to be able to associate faces with the names we see so often
here. And those crowds! We need them to get on the Forum! Lots of good stuff
to peruse, that's for sure.
Thanks for the pics for those of us who weren't there. Really appreciated!

Randy's last name has been lost to time and forgetfullness
But it was none of the mentioned. Perhaps Master Styles can inform us??
