Amish Church Food

Tonight we were with my sister Dena for the evening. Their daughter had church services today and so Dena came home with Church bread. Church bread is homemade bread made especially for church services. 
Their peanut butter is different and tastes much better than it did 30 years ago. Nowadays they mix Rich's Whipped Topping and pancake syrup into the peanut butter.  

I spread a layer of peanut butter, a piece of cheese, a slice of ham and six Bread & Butter pickles on my church bread. It was a delicious sandwich that was finished off with a cup of coffee. 

Out and About

This afternoon was spent with Sister Clara and of her daughters.
Then we were invited to Syl Schlabach & Milan Wengerd's home for a camp fire supper, but it rained so we had it inside. 

 Young and old sitting around visiting.

Aubrey and I got the ride to the grandpa house. Syl and his son Joe did the pushing and the pulling to get us to where we wanted to ne. 

Loading up and going home.
It was a good day.

Apple Creek and Mt Eaton

These first two photos are in Apple Creek Ohio.

This is a village in Wayne County. It is basically self-sustaining, for everyday living.

We went through Mt Eaton. I attended this school in third grade. 

Rush hour in Mt Eaton.

Sunday's Photos in Wayne & Holmes County Ohio

Getting ready to play Volleyball, somewhere in Wayne County Ohio.





Johnson's School grounds. During the summer months animals are kept in the playground to keep the grass down. Rather than having the big animals get caught in the swings, the swings are hanging over the top bar. 

Playing "Pitch and Catch."



Produce Farming

Goose Bottom Creek. The red barn in the distance was where my great-grandfather Honsa Mony lived as a young married man. Later before any of his children were married he moved north of Mt Hope. Within the last two years the farm was sold and many changes are being made. It is a reminder how generations come and go. And with time changes take place. This valley was the Indians hunting ground. They were driven out and the area was open for settlers, which brought Amish from Pennsylvania, including my ancestors. 




Circle of Life

Five of my nieces. They were babies, 
then little girls, 
then teens,
now wives and now also mothers.
One generation comes while another one goes.     

Growing Old

When you grow old in Pinecraft, you are well taken care of.
 Especially so if you are an old dog with a kind master.  

The Wayward Rabbit

I finally found these two again. It has been weeks since I saw them. I had even bought an apple for the excommunicated one, but I ended up eating the apple because he wasn't around. 

Tonight I tried to entice them with a few peanuts but when Sam, who did the excommunicating came driving by in his red pickup, they took off and ran behind a house.
