Mowing hay on a Holmes County, Ohio summer day.

Plowing with three workhorses, a familiar scene in Holmes County, Ohio in the Spring time!

Finished work up close! I just noticed the robin in the foreground, obviously looking for an earthworm or two!

Idyllic Amish Farmstead

A photo I have been wanting to capture recently. Finally today I went by without any taxi passengers, so I stopped and snapped this view of the farm buildingss at this intersection.

So much to be thankful for!! Friends, including my wife who I walked with on this Rails to Trails trail near Millersburg, OH! Thanks for how God has led our 74 year old lives, including bring us together, in 1966. We are also blessed to have friends invite us to join them for lunch today!! Thanks, Jim and Jana!

With such a nice morning, traveling to the wedding with an open carriage is a pleasant ride!

This Amish couple are traveling to a wedding with their “golf cart!” They are probably at the age, etc., that hitching up a horse for a trip wouldn’t be possible!

I have a dilemma! I still haven’t posted many of my photos from my weekend in Charleston, SC. yet! I also have got some nice photos this week, that haven’t been posted. On Monday I am heading for the West Coast, hoping to reach Yosemite National Park by Wednesday evening. This is a 20-day trip, so there should be some great photos coming up! See you then!

My wife and I walked the trail near Millersburg this morning. The Killbuck Creek was full to the banks, the deer were inquisitive, and the birds active. I finally saw a Pileated Woodpecker up close. On my mobile I showed my wife what the woodpecker looked like, and sounded like. Within 100 yards of where existed the trail a Pileated Woodpecker crossed the trail right in front of us, and landed on a tree nearby! That was special.

Paying Respect

On the Mother’s birthday, I took her and 5 of her 10 daughters to visit friends and relatives all day. They stopped at this cemetery to respects to someone.
