Chicago

My story’s not unique; modeled as a kid, life got in the way, 44 now, returned to the hobby two years ago.

Flashback: Through the years I would accompany my wife to arts and craft stores and inevitably she’d get hung up with doilies or something and I’d end up wondering aimlessly through the store to entertain myself. Somehow I’d always gravitate to where the models were. I’d start pawing though all the cellophane wrapped boxes and get the warm ‘n fuzzies recalling the fond childhood memories of model building.

During one of those trips I finally committed and grabbed a Revell 1:48 Corsair and some glue. What the hell…

Now I can’t stop.

GO HAWKS!!!
