Barn Charm

It was a dull and foggy morning when I took this shot in Amish country. Cornshocks are in most of the fields.  The red barn is badly in need of paint.  I love the blue colored laundry on the clothesline strung on the front porch. Amish country is like stepping back in time....

A is for Angel

This angel statue is in a dim foyer of the chapel at the University of Dallas.  I love the    
silhouetted look  and the large angel wing.

Grevy's Zebra, AKA the Imperial Zebra, considered to be endangered

Barn Charm

I think the most appealing thing about this barn in Amish country is  
the horses and buggys lined up out front.

W is for Waterfall

Yesterday evening I hiked into the woods to take a shot of this waterfall.  But hardly
any water was falling since it has been so dry  here. 
Here is a winter shot of the same area, it was much colder hiking into the 
woods for this shot!

Vintage Base Ball

The playing of vintage base ball can be seen at open-air museums, tournament 
re-enactments, and city parks.
 Vintage base ball (spelled with two words prior to the 1880s) is played
by the rules and customs of the 19th century.
 It is played on both open grass fields and modern baseball diamonds.
 Vintage base ball is simply a reflection of how baseball existed at an earlier time.

Quilt Barns

Quilt patterns can be seen painted on rural barns throughout Ohio.  The counties agreed to the project because it supports tourism and allows people to get out in the country to see agriculture.  I love to  find a quilt barn when I am driving in the country.

Skywatch

Gigantic cumulus clouds rise behind the spring fields.
 I knew the storm was coming but I couldn't leave the field because the clouds 
were so awesome.
