You see, Becky and her husband...more Gerald (photo gallery) have been together since she was 16 years old.  They just celebrated their 28th wedding anniversary.  But Becky's afraid Gerald doesn't remember. They're dealing with a disease that's stealing his memories.

CASM hosted their first seminar over the weekend, and overall it was a great success. There were quite a few new faces who joined us for the informative class. The topic was Airbrushes and was lead by Kenneth Childres, David Wassell and Ron Leker.

Cliff Bullock, one of CASM's members...more and an attendant of the Airbrush Seminar had this to say about it.
In my opinion the airbrush seminar was good for me. Some of the information covered I already knew, some I did not. I consider myself an average modeler/air brush user. Not an expert, but not a beginner. Just someone trying to better my skills. With the help of Ken and David, I was able to spray a thin fine line with my airbrush. Something I have been striving to do. I also enjoyed learning about different models of airbrushes. It was also good to hear from David, Ken, and Ron about some of their experiences airbrushing. I was happy to see some new faces at the seminar. Some possible future CASM members. A big THANKS to
