Shipshewana Indiana Amish

When I was in Amish Country a week and a half ago I met up with my friend from Wisconsin, Kathi and her husband Bud. We went to the Christmas parade and light ceremony together. Kathi and I are both huge fans of the Amish and she took some great pictures and said I could share them with you, thanks Kathi!

Thanks for sharing all the pictures of Shipshewana. I have not been there in a few years but when I did go it was amazing. Love the parade pictures.
