Amish Buggy #2

The buggies stop at the stoplights just like the cars, and people are very patient to let them go at their own pace. There was no honking or road rage- maybe everyone should take a lesson from the Amish!! VERY COOL TO SEE !!! Thanks, Ammon and Andrea for taking time to go out there!!!

Amish Buggy

There are these buggies on the road all over the country, where the Amish live. They just go down the side of the road, next to the cars. Their buggies have blinkers!! - I thought this was really cool !! The older people would nod at you if you said hello, but the kids would talk to you. Andrea had a talk with a young man who was making birdhouses.

Amish laundry #2

Everywhere you go there is laundry out being dried, and the Amish people were out working their land. We saw them raking the leaves, mowing the lawns- with the old cutters by hand- and we saw little road side stands where they sell items from their gardens of things that they have made. IT WAS AWESOME!!!

Amish Laundry

The Amish have a pulley system to get the laundry to the top of the post. I also saw the laundry going from the house to the top of a barn!!
