I've got no pictures and hope someone does. This was,I feel, the best Columbus show yet. LOTS of outside vendors and room to room was going ALL DAY and evening. Something for everyone and everyone for something. Got to visit with so many people and please forgive me if I didn't remember some names but old age does that to you. I hope someone took a picture of the PATHFINDER sign, probably 8 feet tall and was it ever cool. Between the fabulous hotel, FREE drinks from 5:30 to 7:00, lots of things to buy this was great

As Ray said it was a great show, I somehow did not see you Ray! I am sure there were lots of people that I missed but glad to see all the ones I did. My camera lens stuck and would not work at all, beat, dropped and throwed it away.
Thanks, Phil

Ray, I agree with you. I am glad to see that the Columbus show has came back. I was able to pick up a few items and signs for my collection. We had a good time. A special thanks to all of the vendors who stayed and was set to sell on Saturday morning for the people who had to work and couldn't be there any sooner. Great show. See yall in Iowa.

DB, she has seen many of the good photos I have taken over the years, with or without the cougar cans. She is going to buy me a new camera that is waterproof and shock proof. Hopefully, it will be beer proof also.
Thanks, Phil

What do you do after a happy hour and a few more hours of drinking ? Go walk around the show lot at one in the morning and take pictures of the strangest things. Indians and eyeballs with wings and left over horse heads from the God Father movie. Was this really a Petro show or the Twilight Zone ?
