How is it looking for international travel?  Canadians, Brits, Germans, Dutch, Poles, French, Japanese?  
 

I see the Czechs have it all figured out, because all the big Czech and Hungarian vendors will be there, ready to gladly sell us every last thing we can afford or have room for in our bags.  
Is there a quarantine from the EU? The Czech Republic is a member of the EU and I can’t believe Special Hobby/CMP, Eduard and such would willingly sit in quarantine.

Not sure on Hungary, but they have vendors listed as attending. 

According to the Advice (although it's not been updated since late April), entry from most of Europe is verboten unless exemptions are granted.

That is of course; not to say that Eduard, S/H, et al can't simply ship their wares across the Pond and have US-based representatives run their stands?

I sure wish I could have made it but it’s been a really different last 16 months. With business picking up and holidays scheduled already which includes time with my two oldest granddaughters there just isn’t going to be time to go. I’ll definitely miss a lot of you guys as spending time with many of you in Phoenix was the highlight of my time there. I’ll have to enjoy the show vicariously through the pics you all will post. You will be posting lots of pics right?
 

Cheers,

Telford has been announced it’s going ahead, 13/14 November, not sure again how all the European guys are going attend. Would love to go but with shielding my highly vulnerable wife from the virus and no modelling budget……….

Looks like Vegas has just reinstated the indoor mask mandate.

I can't criticise my dentist coz I'm married to her! Never anger a woman with a cabinet full of torture implements.  

Agree there.  Tread lightly, my friend.   The entire “implant” thing is just this side of being a bit far fetched to me. 
but, we’re in it for the long haul…. Too late to back out now.

Oh Good Grief. Here we go again. I’m so incredibly sick of this crap.  Now they’re talking “delta” variants, etc, and as far as I’m concerned, I’m just going to live my life and whatever happens, happens. 
 

model building is a good pastime, I also have my old cars and the restoration of of them, and it’s a good time to get serious about flying again.  All semi solo pastimes and to heck with the various governments and their stupid rules.   Do we run and hide, or do we just proceed through life, not quaking at every shadow that passes by?

Close to 600 pre-registrants to the convention.

If I'm not bringing anything,  do I register  ?....harv

I would say no but you would have to pay the daily fee to get into the contest and vendor room.

Anyone want to meet me in Reno instead?

For those of you driving west of Denver on I70, there are problems with mud slides. It is closed now and you have to use a detour.

Well I was going to go but my appendix had other plans for me and decided to leak/perforate a few weeks ago and since I walked around unknowingly for awhile with it perforated (I thought it was a stomach bug), I'll be dealing with that this week ..   Something I don't recommend BTW and  luckily the infection didn't go septic. 

Fortunately I was able to cancel the hotel and get refunded but,  damn I wanted to go!
