Nancy outdid herself today with great interesting touring fun. We went to an Amish owned farm and took a guided
(Mennonite girl) of two Amish houses (old order very strict and a more modern less strict sect.), Amish working barn,
buggy ride and Amish school house. We then went to a real Amish family and had lunch. We got to talk to the whole
family and it was a great learning experience. The family had gone to Cypress Gardens a few years back and our
daughter lives a few blocks from it which was interesting. The lunch was unbelievable and I had to come back and
take a 2 hour nap to recoverer. All in all, it was a wonderful experience.
