Today we went about 15 miles north east to Intercourse, PA Where we spent about 3 hrs looking through shops at quilts, Amish furniture, Amish books and tourist junk.
We then continued another 5 or 6 miles to New Holland Where we spent an hour or two just driving through the country side looking at the Amish & Mennonite farms. Coming over a hill and seeing the large white barns, silos and big houses throughout the valley in front of you is a sight that I think I will never get tired of seeing. We stopped at one Amish farm where we bought nice fresh tomatoes & peppers 4 for a dollar and a good size cantaloupe for a dollar and a seedless watermelon for a buck & one half..
At 4:30 we meet Buttonwood Bay friends Carl & Jackie & Claire & Mary at Yoder's cafeteria where we all proceded to eat to much.

It would be fun to ride in one of the buggies
You should see if they offer rides

Do you remember when the four of us rode in one buggy. Al and I had the comfortable seat and Kent and Nancy did not have a very comfortable ride.
