On the first Tuesday of every month me and a couple of my brothers meet at Athena's on Walden and Union for breakfast. I needed to stop at the Northwest Bank afterwards that day to make a deposit for my church. Right next door is Fields Hobby Center. I've been passing this hobby store for years and keep meaning to stop in, but either time or traffic just didn't allow it at the time. This day I had the time, and was really glad I did. They have helicopters airplanes cars, all that you can fly or drive. I was amazed at the number of things they had. I've also been wanting a drone so this seemed like a good place for me to look. I was amazed by the aisle up on aisle of parts that they had for the different Vehicles both are in ground.

Read moreGreat, knowledgeable people! I was looking for a gift for my son for Christmas. I discovered the Traxxas trx4 rock crawler.
