Back Home Again...

Yesterday my friend Jean and I walked about five miles on some of the country roads in Daviess County, Indiana.  We both grew up here, both have moved away.  It was like traveling back in time.  Back, because it was back to where we were kids, and back because many of the houses on the main road of our walk were Amish houses without some of the conveniences of 21st century living.  No electricity or cars.  Big gardens where much of the family’s food was raised.  Laundry hanging on the line.  We love this walk, love ending up at the Gasthof Restaurant in Montgomery for lunch, love talking and walking as we have done since we were teens. Love driving home in our modern cars,
