Berk, aren't you in Southern California? Do you have many Old Order Amish in your area?

How do you feel about snow? Cuz we gets lots of it here in Ohio and they do in Pennsylvania also. and in MOST areas where I know of that the Amish have settled.

To the outsider the differences are few. We had electricity for major appliances. Most of the men shaved. We were allowed the use of small (no cabs) tractors to farm - provided they had no rubber tires (steel wheels)
