One of the hundreds of varieties of delicious cookies at the cookie factory
Sampling and thoughtfully examining
Benji approves of the cookie in question
Hiking up to the Fankhauser Anabaptist hiding place
The trap door that led to the hideout behind a false wall
This picture was taken by Dietrich as I was teaching him about aperture and depth of field
This and the next four pictures were taken by Dietrich with my camera
A group of us sitting on the Fankhauser steps chatting: Jan and I, three of the Amish girls, three of the Horning girls, and two of the Beachy girls
Jan and Frieda (notice Dietrich using depth of focus/field)
Regina, who loves to tease Dietrich
Charlene
This is again the beginning of the pictures I took; this is at the cow bell store
Guess what flash arrangement I used to take this picture
Deciding between two goat bells
If this’d be on the front porch of a general store, it would be just perfect
Lorne searching out his Kuepfer forebears
Back at the Muri farm, the view from the top of the hill
Out across the fields
Watching the cows and the sunset
The cow and Mike
A mutually amusing encounter
Cow, grass, barn, sky
Mom praising the Lord Sound of Music-style
An intense game of foosball
Celebration or anguish: I’m unsure of which, but they are certainly mirrored in Dietrich and Jan’s expressions

dietrich did amazingly well! he took some pics with my camera as well when i spent a day with your family several months ago… he obviously has older sibs who handle cameras often.

wow…! Am sure he wouldn’t remember, but years ago when I was on a Europe tour Dietrich was my special little ‘pet’. Can’t believe what a little man he’s grown up to be! =)
