AMISH COUNTRY

We decided to drive through Amish Country. It was very interesting to see the differences in the way of life. We went to one of their restaurants and ate dinner. The walls were completely covered in quilts It was beautiful. They had hard boiled eggs that had been soaked in beet juice which made them pink. I didn't think about getting a picture but Cambri thought they were pretty cool. Here's an old steam engine tractor they use for farming.


I really wanted to get a good picture of an Amish buggy but I was sitting in the back of the van. Ashley was a little shy about hanging out the window to take a picture so Tyler opened up the whole side of the van and leaned out while Kay was holding onto his pants so he could get a good picture. Cambri was not happy about this activity at all.






Interesting contrast isn't it. I bet they don't care about gas prices.
