This corner has rocking chairs etc. There is a sign hanging there which says, “Do Nothing Club.” Usually it is filled with men waiting while their wives are shopping. This day it was filled with women who came here to eat their lunch, because they were all in town for 100+ garage sales! As a taxi driver I was driving 4 women around to garage sales all morning.

Bride and Groom, and Bride’s son. She was a widow.

A day with mixed emotions, since my good friend was marrying a widow. Notice non-posed photos, very typical of the Amish.

This was the only “posed” photo. the young ladies standing in the back are good friends of mine!

Working the fields the vintage way! Where’s Waldo? I mean the farmer’s dog! 🙂

I chatted with these boys a little bit as I stopped for a bit to catch this photo.

Ready to Take Orders

This lady was at a booth for log style cabin furniture at a local Ohio Hardwood Market Guild show.

All in a Row

Blue Eyes

As I neared this field where the farmer was spreading manure, he had just finished and was heading out of the field to his home. As a last resort I took a photo of him chatting with a neighbor, using my driver’s side rear-view mirror!

A gentleman from a local archery shop is demonstrating safety in using a bow and arrow. I didn’t stick around to see how many balloons were popped by the students!

Bike and Buggies

A lot of buggies lined up at the hitching post in Berlin, Ohio. One lone biker arrived to shop as well.
