I put it on my wishlist, as it looks very interesting, not just recipes, but stories about the Amish themselves. Edna Staebler is a local celebrity who died very recently at the age of 100.

Ever heard of it?<br />Anyway, with the shooting in PA last week, I feel so scared for these small, tigh-knit communities when we crazy Susan Gets Nativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00216170589750418861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-65296036852433355992006-10-05T19:38:00.000-04:002006-10-05T19:38:00.000-04:00The buggies drive use the shoulder on the busier h...The buggies drive use the shoulder on the busier highways, but if there is little traffic, they use the pavement. Yes, the pumpkins are lovely.

We visited Lancaster County PA, a couple of years ago and found that region far more crowded, with the Amish community more of a commercial commodity. A kindly police officer who I knew personally "happened" to stop by my vehicle and got me a tow very quickly. It was minus 20F that day.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892804871759397018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-82453013322826422312006-10-04T21:21:00.000-04:002006-10-04T21:21:00.000-04:00It looks so peaceful where you are.
