Akron, Ohio. Six pictures I put together into a panoramic.

Iridescent clouds. I don't think I've seen a sunset like this. It changed constantly and was fascinating to watch. This site tells where the color comes from http://www.atoptics.co.uk/droplets/iridim6.htm

Amish buggy. The Amish don't like for their pictures to be taken, so I waited for him to pass and be hidden from view. We passed groups of them farming with horses, which is fascinating to see in these modern times. The wheat is ready, and we saw some mowing it down with teams of 2-3 large draft horses. We passed others using a gasoline powered horse drawn baler making straw bales, and several fields with the wheat bundled up and stacked in perfectly straight rows of shocks. I went into 'Amish country' with my parents and sister. We went to a store there selling bulk food, which is significantly cheaper than buying it in the big grocery stores near us.
