Thanks for your comments on these.
I would normally agree about the busyness of the lights and wires and all, but for people who don't use electric in their personal homes I found it interesting that it's those things they have learned to deal with. In my mind, I guess I'm seeing the simple mixed with the complex trappings of everyday life we see all the time. Not too many years ago this Amish community actually took the power compies to court trying to prevent them from stringing towers and electric lines across an area of their community. They eventually lost and were never pleased about it.
Much could be said about the way they live, heck they still use outhouses at their schools.
Picture #3 was actually a crop from this attached photo. Granted I don't use PS enough to be skilled at it, but I was trying to pull the girl out a bit more. I had a 35-70 lense on my camera at the time and was shooting through my windshield.
I actually thought I had a side shot of a buggy when a tanker truck was passing but I guess it got culled. Anyway here's a shot of a buggy coming out of his farm. I was still too far away for a decent shot and was using my 70-300 on it.

Thanks again for comments and I do plan on being back in that area again.
