Smack in the middle of the world's largest Amish settlement, Charm, Ohio is home to the KEIM LUMBER Co., itself an incredible juxtaposition of a world-class hardware store/lumber yard surrounded for miles of bucolic farm land where shocked wheat bundles sparkle in sun drenched fields.  A young Amish adult (above), who may have ridden to work in his 19th Century buggy, tends to business at his 21st Century computer terminal assisting friend Mark Meinzer with his custom lumber order.

Please stop by Saturday and Fogeyisms will tell you more of this friendly collision of vastly different cultures.
