Buggies, Buggies, Everywhere


My sister Kate took this fabulous photo.


My sisters and their families are in town. And we thought we'd go for a ramble through Amish country for old times sake. And as we are driving through the vast acreage of crops and cattle, I was again reminded of just how unique my corner (yes, I'm calling it mine) of this country really is. While the buggies and the tourists who crawl along watching the buggies drive me crazy, I love my home and love that my children get to daily witness Old World mingling with New.

So I thought I'd share a few shots of our Lancaster County adventure with you all.









Yes, that's an Amish buggy at the drive-thru window at the ice cream shop.
This lovely pic was taken by my other sis Sarah.
 
Today, as it happens, I am also leaving for Ireland, and I am at this minute trying to contain my squeals of excitement. So, as I continue in my rambles in a countryside even more green and lush than Lancaster, I will periodically be checking in here on the Isle (barring any internet snafu) with pictures and an update. See you soon from the other side of the pond!
