Spring Photos From Ohio's Amish Country

This Amish fellow is using a three horse team to plow one of his fields for spring planting.  Normally an old-fashioned plow like this one would be fitted with a contoured iron seat, but here he has bolted a soft desk chair to the plow.  I guess there's no reason the seat on a plow shouldn't be comfortable.  The next step before planting will be to drag a chain or hook harrow over the ground to smooth it out.  Any way you look at it, Amish horses in spring get plenty of work.
