Lebanon county : Early spring in Lebanons Amish settlement.



Dairy cows resting on a cool spring day , and can you blame them.

One of mother natures natural speed bumps for the eyes.

When i was driving around Lebanon county in what was in early spring, it had me wondering "which farmer is thinking about selling his land", and to who?. I admit i was starting to take all the beauty that is around me for granted just a little, as maybe a lot of the residents have come to do. But deep down i know a lot of it can disappear, and there is only so much anyone other than the farm owner themselves can do about it.sentimental feelings for the Land here in this part of Lebanon county's Amish settlement run high i would say, but that does not stop someone who gives in, and sells to a developer for hard cash. So now my outlook is different when i go out and drive around and take images, and knowing some of what I'm seeing might not be around much longer. the beauty of this area is one reason why i moved here in the first place, but sometimes nothing last forever, so i try to take nothing for granted.
