Pennsylvania Dutch Country

Greetings - From "The Amish Country"
A group of AMISH children in Sunday dress.  The Amish are a Religious Sect of people who have retained most of their forefathers' original customs and make their living solely by farming; without the use, or aid, of modern conveniences.


Greetings From The "Pennsylvania Dutch Country"
AMISH women serve refreshments outside after church meeting on Sunday.  The AMISH are a religious sect of farmers who seek to detach themselves from the "world" and technological progress in order to practice the virtues of humility, holiness and hard work.
