"Amish farms add an old-fashioned beauty to our community."


J and Shells,

So, apparently, the Amish live in KY - most in the group were baffled of my intimate knowledge of their ways. We stayed in a Baptist gym last night and I ate at the Marion Cafe, home to delicious homemade lemon meringue pie and the best something-something ["milkshakes" maybe? Sorry, USPS stamped over that word.] of the trip so far (yes, I ordered both).

Love,
Paul

*An aside from the addressees: To the actual photographer of our post card, Sheila Truitt, you're not supposed to take pictures of the Amish. They're against that, but it does make for a good quote (see title) and the look of rural coziness. Photo is from Marion, KY, as was the post card.
