Sunday afternoon

Taking a ride through our Amish area, these girls and most likely one of the girls brother were out for a stroll.

Lots of "tired iron" around our area. This is an antique road grader. In earlier days it might have been pulled by horses, but in later years by a tractor.

Church is over for the Amish , and several of the families make their way home. Far up the road on the left you can see Mom and Dad each pushing a stroller and a buggy with their children inside. It is a long way up this hill, and I noticed at one time as we drove from behind, the Mom and Dad would change places possibly because  the buggy was heavier than the stroller and each would take their turn.

This buggy has at least 4 children in the back seat and Mom holding one up front.

I might have already mentioned this, but Fall is sneaking up on us. The Canada geese are nearly done molting and have gotten their new feathers. Now they can fly again, and are going through practice maneuvers with the youngsters. Most of the geese around here will stay put all winter as long as the creek doesn't freeze. If it does, they will fly a little South just to where they can find food.
Another beautiful day and much cooler.
Take care everyone.

I didn't get very many pictures today. It started out clear and 6º. By 9AM it was up to 19º
Then it clouded up, and looked like rain, but the freezing rain went South. Later out came the sun.
This sky was around 7:30 this morning, and only lasted about 5 minutes. We did have rain around 6PM, but it didn't amount to much. More deer shots. Now that the geese aren't around so much there seem to be plenty of deer to photograph.
This doe wasn't hanging around.
Lots of Amish out and about today.
I had lots of birds, but the same old gang . Nothing new to show you.
Have a great day all, and be safe.
