The first year I went to NAMES was a spur-of-the-moment decision.
I took a red-eye flight to Detroit, arriving about 7:30 AM Friday.
A cab ride got me to Wyandotte about 8:00, where the first
exhibitors were just arriving.   I walked up to the first guy
I saw with a NAMES badge and said, "Hi, I would like to help.
Put me to work."   I worked my butt off all day long, but
enjoyed it so much that I did it again the next year.   This
is a great way to get to know other modelers.
