Day 138 - Intercourse, PA

Not your everyday sign
Today I walked in Intercourse, PA, with my friend Beamie Young.  We are in this area to take a photography course for the weekend, and how could we pass up the chance to take our photo walk in such a great area?  Believe me, we saw lots of wonderful things here in Amish Country.

We parked at one end of town, near a pretzel factory, and walked to the other.  Occasionally, horse drawn buggies would pass us by.  We walked by crafting and antique places, yarn and fabric places, and museums and woodworking shops.

I'll take twenties, please.
When we got to the end of town, there was a horse and buggy in the parking lot of the bank.  We said, "Wouldn't it be great if there were a horse and buggy in the drive-in lane?"  Well, our wish came true!  The woman driving it had a little difficulty convincing the horse to back up enough so that she could reach the drawer to put her transaction in, but after a little knocking around, the horse finally did get in the right place.

We enjoyed a fantastic walk in Intercourse, and we're off to learn light painting tonight, a few miles away from our B&B.
