Cross-Border Chopper-ing

Zipped down to the States with Pam yesterday; had to go to Pembina to pick up some parcels (the old GW game "Bommerz over da Sulphur River" and some replacement decals for the bodywork of one of my motorbikes).

We decided to make a day of it and carried on down to Grand Forks. While in GF we stopped at Target, it's sometimes good for the odd diecast purchase. Yesterday's was a good one: a 1/48 UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter for $20. Here it is, pictured with some US Marines I painted earlier ;-)

Apparently the model is a "Target Exclusive" meaning they won't be found anyplace else... shame as we have no Targets in Canada... yet...

It was a good day. I was happy to pick up my goodies and return with copious amounts of Cherry Coke Zero... Pam was happy with the sales at the Gap and Eddie Bauer... so it was all good :-)
