A Fall Trip....

I have always been intrigued with the Amish Community.  I read alot of books by Beverly Lewis.  She writes Amish Fiction books.  Her books reflect the traditions and character of the Amish.  It is such a humbling life style as they do not focus on worldly things. 

About a month ago, Bill and I took an overnight trip to Lynchburg, TN.  We visited the Amish community there.  I loved it!!!  All of the houses are built alike. Their transportation is the horse and buggy.  We stopped at a few houses and purchased homemade bread, eggs, homemade jams, jellies, cabbage slaw and even a basket.   They were working in the fields with horses, no type of modern machinery at all.  One of the houses we stopped at, they were making sorghum molasses. 

They do not like their pictures to be taken, but I did take a few but from a distance.




 



Hopefully we will be making another trip to Lynchburg, TN soon.

Maybe we all could take a lesson from the Amish people and be more humble and not get caught up in such worldly things that we do.

On our way home we stopped by the Davey Crockett Park and ate a late lunch and early supper.

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.  Micah 6:8

Until next time....Have a Blessed Day....
