Doing some yard work, found this little critter policing my tool shed, helping to keep it pest free.

Looks like it. What road?

I was in a moving vehicle when that photo was taken so I can’t say with absolute certainty but looking back at my map app of the area I was in earlier, I believe it was SR 226 near Shreve, OH

They got good blueberry picking in shreve

And that's probably 50 percent Amish out there. Loudonville to Wooster. A little east of there and you're deep in unglaciated hill country. Dairy and cheese heavy. I would rate that part of ohio and the Wisconsin/iowa driftless region as really underrated beautiful places

Took this one yesterday. Columbia Gorge near Portland, OR.

Haven't been up that way since the 80's. Lived outside of Grants Pass for a few years in the early 80's. Sometimes I can't believe how beautiful it is up there. This is what our old place looks like now

Why were you in Ohio?

 

[Jagdaddy]

Did a short hike just above Juneau today. No bears or mountain goats around, but here’s a porcupine:

Why were you in Ohio?

To go to Napoleon to get some in-roads with farmers for the tomato harvest this summer...

JK, was passing through on a road trip to Gettysburg, PA (current location). Stopped in St Louis and Springfield, IL (to see Lincoln museum and memorial) and knew someone in the Amish country of Ohio and made a quick detour.

Completely agree. It is definitely scenic, in a subtle way (compared to a scene like the one depicted in @Oregonbuck ’s photo above) that is very pleasant to the eyes. I enjoyed driving through there a lot.

And that's probably 50 percent Amish out there.

I saw quite a few horse and buggies (and a lot of 4 wheelers on the road).

This pic didn’t come out well but if you zoom in on the reflector…

First time?

First time?

In the Amish area of Ohio, yes.

In Ohio in general? No I have been before.

Well, had you gone to Napoleon, you would have been in good company to make inroads with the tomato farmers, that's for sure. Grew up there, could have given you plenty of contacts! LOL.
