			<description><![CDATA[ Of course I couldn&#39;t  resist!!  I did pretty good the first day, only buying the Akagi &amp; the Jintsu.   Then the dealers went crazy with discounts the
2nd day so I dove in!!
<br>
<br>
I also took over 500 photos.  Once I post them on my local IPMS chapter website, I&#39;ll put a link up so everyone can check them out.

			<description><![CDATA[ The Nationals were great - there were something like 2,503 models entered in the contest.  I didn&#39;t place in any of the categories I entered, but the
competition was really, really good, and I had a good time.   Picked up the following kits (like I needed anymore):
<br>
<br>
Midship Models 1/700 USS Guam (1945)
<br>
Midship Models 1/700 USS Salt Lake City (1943)
<br>
Admiralty Models 1/700 USS Spokane (1945)
<br>
Niko Models 1/700 Nashiville (1943/44)
<br>
Hasegawa 1/700 IJN Akagi (the new triple deck version)
<br>
Aoshima 1/700 IJN Jintsu (1933)
<br>
Aoshima 1/700 Atago (1942)
<br>
<br>
I also picked up an upgrade set for the Trumpeter 1/700 Richelieu from L&#39;Arsenal.  It comes with a comprehensive PE set, plus resin replacements for the
40mm guns.  
<br>
<br>
All in all, a great time!  Next years convention will be in Columbus, OH, Aug 19-22nd.   In 2010, the Nationals will be in Phoenix, which beat out Portland,
Oregon for the honors.
