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.
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!

The front carriage is carrying the casket of my Uncle on the way to the countryside cemetery.
The Buggy returns home empty, to the home place where my father grew up. It was a 1/2 mile walk to the cemetery. I visited this home many times as a lad. So much nostalgia here. Playing in creek, etc. RIP Uncle Christ!
Two Great-Grandchildren help to cover the grave of my Uncle whose funeral was today.

My good friend reading to his daughter!
I was prompted to post this blog after reading Beth’s blog this morning:
From our home to yours. Our dining room is all prepped for company.
