Wow, the wifi is fast here is Amish country. Guess there's not much competition for bandwidth out here. We arrived here around 3:30. Kids changed into Amish clothing, and then we were off to the Stoltzfus family farm to do chores. The Stoltzfus family has five children, and the middle child, 11-year-old Daniel was helping organize the chores. Our kids brushed horses, mucked stables, spread mulch, cut the grass with a hand-mower, and helped the mother sew one of the quilted blankets that the Amish donate to charity. The Stoltzfus family owns a little country store, so we got to shop after we were done with chores. They sell homemade pretzels, potato chips, and root beer, along with lots if other handmade goods. In just a few minutes we will be headed off to a shoo fly pie demonstration, and then dinner, followed by games with the Stoltzfus family. Remember your child doesn't have their phone tonight, so don't fret if you don't get a call or text. I'll post plenty of photos, though. :)
