Attended my first ever RPM event this past Fri/Sat in st. Louis.  What a fabulous time. The modeling was superb, so much to see.  The vendors had oodles of stuff to look thru, especially photos. There were several outfits that I spent an inordinate amount of time looking thru their pics.  But, the best part were the people.  I saw some friends, connected with internet friends face to face (thanks for the hospitality John!), and made numerous new friends.  There was not a pretentious person in the room.
