I sure wouldn’t want to drive a school bus like that.

Nicely shot. They have a way of life that might get them through the horrible century.

I don't get up to Pennsylvania too often but when I do, I love seeing the Amish farms and the buggies. This is a wonderful image!

Martha said...

Very familiar, we have an Amish community here too.

We have Old Order Amish around here. The Amish in Iowa are required to have English (not the subject) teachers. Nice shot.

The transport is ready if they can find the horses. ;-) When I lived in the Midwest, we would occasionally see Amish folks on the roads.

Yes, nice shot. 🙂

These school buses are unusual. Nice find

Nice shot. There are a lot of Amish families in this area. A lot of them shop in the store where I work. Sometimes I think their simpler way of life would be nice.

I've always had a sneaking admiration for such people and their determination to stick to their beliefs.

Hootin Anni said...

Such an envious lifestyle. Tho I'm spoiled with modern gadgets we have, I must admit their simple way of living is impressively admired.

It will be interesting to learn more about their lifestyle. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2021 to you and family.

Makes me yearn to be part of a society of simplicity! I miss the simpler times of my youth without cellphones and computers.

beautiful photo. I am thinking this old gal could not get up in one of those wagons to ride in it.

What a quaint view

That's so interesting how they get from one place to another. I can really relate to it. There is an Amish movie that I've watched a few times. It's about forgiveness, and each time I watch it, I cry. It's a beautiful story. Merry Christmas to you, Rose. Thanks for being such a good blog friend and visiting, and for your comments. I appreciate it.
