I am going to attend this conference in Long Beach, CA this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, April 30, and May 1 & 2. It is held aboard the Queen Mary (1) which has been turned into a very nice hotel/convention center. About 250 ship models of all kinds will be on display from 10 to 5 each day. The exhibit is open to the public. I enjoy looking at the ships, and it is great fun meeting and talking with the modelers. I haven't seen this mentioned on this or any other board, but it would be nice if some of the Southwesterners (US) would attend. If you do, maybe we can say howdy.
