Old Order Mennonite Buggy
This looks old but may not be THAT old. Old Order Mennonites still use this mode of transportation, called a "courting buggy" as there's room for only two people. This one is an ornament placed in a side yard.

I'd love to see one of these being driven down the road.

Looks like it need some tender loving care! Lovely monochromatic photo!
And it's a convertible, too. Very sporty!
It lends itself well to sepia. I would like to have one of those for my yard. I have just the place too. MB
It's a cute buggy, I can imagine it full of flowers and with a beautiful couple taking a stroll at afternoon in Spring...
Adorable shot!

Lovely buggy an it does maka a very nice sepia picture.
So pretty, a postcard picture for sure. Did we get snow here before you did?!!
How sentimental. An ornamental momento perhaps of the couple who now resides in the house.
I thought I was going to see bugs--this was a nice surprise. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
oh, a great find! makes a great photo!
What a wonderful view of an ancient transportation device. No more than two? What about the horse pulling the couple - he can hear everything!
Very nice ornament! ;-) If I had this, I'd get myself a horse.
Reminds me of the song, "Froggy went a courting, I don't know why.. :)
A nice subject for sepia scenes
wow this can be used in a wedding parade!

The most beautiful sepia scene I ever seen. LOVE IT.
Hi EG.... Great sepia photo today. I love seeing those old buggies... Perfect one for a sepia photo.
Hugs,

I love that they left it with the wheels turned. :)
Nice find.
Lovely. I can hear the horses...klipity klop klipity klop...
I love this old buggy and the simpler lifestyle it evokes.
Cool shot for sepia! I like that it's only for two.
What a wonderful sepia picture. The buggy makes a wonderful lawn ornament.
For some reason I really like old buggies...can't figure out why. Maybe it's because they're so photogenic...
Not sure I'd want one rotting away in my yard, though.
Another excellent photo -- the processing is perfect with sharp light and dark tones...
It would be a cold ride today! You'd need a soap stone for your feet.
Love those old buggies.

I really like this...and I would like to take a ride in one. I have ridden on a regular horse drawn wagon as a kid so it is probably similar.
totally charming
