Pictures from the 2022 Columbus Hamfest

This year’s show was a bit muted - the sky threatened rain all day, and it did rain in several locations around the city. Fortunately, it held off at the Aladdin Shrine Temple, but still kept things low key. More vendors showed up as the morning went on, and the inside of the building was still fairly well packed as usual.

There was enough to keep me and a friend busy for almost 3 hours, and we found ourselves going back and forth as new people arrived. A few things I probably should have walked out with, but I have to be kind of choosy because I have too much junk already. Oh well…there’s always Findlay in a month!
