The corn was already high in July in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. This tidy Amish farm was seen from our hotel window in Bird In Hand, Pennsylvania.

Getting yet another coat of varnish...

The famous lorikeet tree at Banksia Beach came down in a recent storm but there are still plenty of places to find cooperative subjects.

A place that needs no introduction! Though until this day I'd never actually set foot in the famous little Pennsylvania town of Tamaqua. It was bustling on this day thanks to Summer Fest and the Reading and Northern was participating with three trains offering hour long rides behind 4-6-2 steam locomotive 425 on the north end of the train and GP38-2 2011 on the south.

 

Here is the spit and polished green and yellow geep parked on former Reading Railroad rails at MP 98.2 on what is modern day RBMN's Reading Division mainline prior to departing south with the 1 PM excursion. They are sitting in front of the nicely restored depot that dates from 1874 and is now home to an Italian restaurant. To their right is the gorgeously landscaped Depot Square park that was recreated in 2001 by the city after half a century gone in the same style but across the tracks from the park the RDG had built and maintained for nearly 70 years.

Jane is constantly leaving books and abandoned bowls of porridge and cups of tea about the rectory. Cassandra goes around tidying after her.

I read in my local newspaper a while back a quite good saying.. "If you find a clean beach in the world today it only means that someone just cleaned it before you arrived".. please always take your trash with you and do also pick up what you can that someone else left in nature!

I made a visit to the Ohio Amish country on September 15 and 16, 2011. While driving from my bed & breakfast to Yoder's Amish Home, where I had a tour, I came across this beautiful scene of Amish farmlands among the hills just south of Farmerstown.

I can envision an old farm couple driving into this farm site and sitting quietly in their car before getting out. Before them is a hundred year old barn that once was the work center of their lives. They talk, remembering former days of a life that passed all too quickly.
