Week 48, Day 337, April 1, 2010, Rolling Hills

This is Summer Hill.  There are many stories on how Summer Hill was named.  Some people it's because Summer is the only time that you can get here.  Others say that it was an attempt to attract more people to live here. Some say that it is named after a town in Ireland.  I prefer the first story, because in the winter there is a lot of snow.

Summer Hill is also the birth place of Millard Fillmore the 13th President of the United States.

It's also home of the "Empire Haven Nudist Colony".  There will be no photos from the Colony on this blog.

More recently there have been several farms that have been purchased by Amish families.  It's very common to see a horse and buggy along the road.

Lessons Learned:

• I used a fill flash on this photo.  The first couple of photos the sign was to dark.  The fill flash did a good job to highlight it.
