Some photos I took on the way to and from, as well as at the rally. I know a lot of you took photos of Barley and I, and if you would share them here I would be hugely appreciative. I have precious few of the two of us together.
First shot: a quiet road in the Amish Country of northern Ohio
Passing an Amish buggy near Uhrichsville OH
As I came to a stop at the T-intersection in front of this house I heard an excited young boy shout, "Awesome!" which was not a word I expected to hear in Amish Country. Half a dozen boys ranging from fivish to early teens came running out with their hats and suspenders. They stood back at a respectful distance and asked if they could come closer. I nodded and they surrounded Barley, who happily soaked up all their attention. They asked several insightful questions and it was clear the concept of dog as constant companion was foreign to them. I noticed later that the helmet cam had been on the entire time, but since I didn't ask permission I deleted all the images.
Young Amish woman waving after we bought some peaches. Several Amish had no objections to candid shots, though none would pose. Just goes to show it pays to ask.
