I remember those days. running to get ice to put in the ice box to keep things cold. Also kerosene lanterns to read by. I loved those days when I was growing up in Maine. Great memories . I remember it being so cold that the water bucket leaked and the water froze on the kitchen shelf and we had icicles hanging down the side board.

I enjoy reading the books on the amish life. I truly sometimes wish we were like that because their community seems to be close and tight nit, unlike families in the world/society, they have lost the real meaning of family, respect, forgiveness, love,. When I read the books it takes me to a world I think, at times, is far better than what I’m living in and putting up with.

I never ceased to be amazed by the Amish people and their skills. I am totally in awe of the fact that they continue to exist in such a way that seems to be non-existant in today’s society. I just love to read about their lefe skills and their ways of living.
