p.1 #1 · A few humorous shots from my Pennsylvania trip


My wife and I recently traveled to Pennsylvania to attend our granddaughter's wedding, in the heart of Amish/Mennonite country. I took my lightweight travel camera gear kit, which is my Olympus Pen-F and a small assortment of small/lightweight lenses. I'm absolutely thrilled with the variety and quality of images I got with such a compact set up.
Here are just a few, which I thought added some humor to the variety of images I came back with.

It's definitely amusing somebody is still driving a Saturn.

When you get off the main roads you get stuck behinds the horse wagons going so slowly. I never took a camera there though. I'm not sure how they like strangers driving rental cars around.

Thanks for the comment. I didn't mind getting behind the carriages -- it was a reminder that for most of us, life is too fast. I got a real kick out of the little town of 'Intercourse' -- it was pretty funny seeing the souvenir T-shirts that said "I Love (Heart) Intercourse"
We really enjoyed to whole atmosphere, and the people were very friendly and gracious.We stayed in an AirBnB on the property of a Mennonite family -- they were such sweet people.

My wife and I stopped at the "Welcome to Intercourse" sign at the entrance to the town and took the required photos. We also saw that Costco had parking for horses and buggy's. I would have posted a picture but I am not a member of "Upload and Sell".

Thanks for the comment. My wife bought a 'hat pin' that said, " I 'heart' Intercourse" -- but it disappeared mysteriously during luggage transit on the flights back.

Thanks, Gary. We really enjoyed the entire trip (except for the crowded airports in Austin and DC)
