Our Lovely B&B in Edinburgh

We stayed at a small bed & breakfast in Edinburgh called McNeil House. The wall that surrounds the house was built in the 1840's. It surrounded a farm. The house was built in the early 1900's.


This the gate from the road. You can't drive your car to the door.


This is view from our window. In the background you can see the city and the hills across the river.


Both streets and sidewalks are very narrow here.


A typical street sign in Edinburgh.


Yep, this house is built right into the wall.

An Amish Saturday

Amish life is simple and fun. Plenty of walking or riding on horse-drawn vehicles. Here's a few scenes in and around Mesopotamia, OH. Enjoy!


An Amish father and his sons walk along the road.


A young Amish boy pushes a scooter.


An Amish family takes a ride on a cart pulled by Shetland pony.


An Amish couple takes an afternoon stroll.


A familiar site throughout Geauga, Trumbull and Ashtabula counties are these Amish buggies.

Leaves and camera

Why do fall leaves and digital cameras go so well together? Take a look!


This grove of trees were so spectacular I almost parked in the middle of the road to shoot them. The sky looks great and with my handy polarizer filter the blue sky looks glorious.


A nice contrast of a barren tree in the foreground against a beautiful tree in the background.
