Now That’s an Amish Buggy

7 Comments 17 June 2010

Before yesterday I had never climbed into the cabin of an Amish buggy.

That all changed last night.

Hey, I said it was the cabin of an Amish buggy, and it is. It’s an authentic buggy cabin from the 60′s.

Didn’t say anything about horses though.

Here’s the tail end of a spin that Erica, Kylie, and Parker took in it.

Good times in Lancaster County.

Thanks for the ride Doug!

Amish Paradise, Videos

Amish Volleyball Party

There’s a lot of sites out there in the Wide Wide InterWorld.

But I’m pretty sure you’re not gonna find footage like this anywhere but on this site.

I’ve told you before that the Amish like volleyball, now I’m gonna show you.

If you don’t hear anything from me in the next couple days, they’ve found out about this video and have me duct-taped in a barn somewhere.  Please come rescue me.

Time for another edition of Living with the Amish (you can see the previous 13 editions here).

As always, there are actual pictures taken from my actual phone. As far as I know, no souls were captured during the taking of these photos.

Before we get into the jokes, let’s get serious for a minute.

You see this?

If you ever visit Amish Country this is called DO NOT PASS.

There is a probably a car coming the other way. It will not turn out well.

This is the Amish version of the station wagon.

Kind of like a convertible K-Car that only goes 12 miles an hour.

With an engine that drops huge turds on the road.

Time for another edition of Living with the Amish (you can see the previous 12 editions here).

As always, there are actual pictures taken from my actual phone.

Remember those turtle carriers cars used to use in the 80s?

This is the Amish version.

Wood, plastic wrap, and a red rope.

Caught this Amish guy driving a motorized vehicle.

He thought no one would catch him in his Evilmobile, but I was there to snap a picture.

I’m like the Chris Hansen of the Amish community.

Hey horse, GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

As if riding a scooter in the dead of winter isn’t punishment enough,

here, wear this bright safety vest so no one misses you.

When the snow and ice are too much for the buggy, it’s time to break out the sled.

(aka, Amish snow tires)

What’s in the backpack, buddy?

Hockey sticks?

Farm equipment?

Power outlets and extension cords?

If you live in Lancaster County and have a nose, then you know what this is.

It’s a large green vessel filled with manure for enriching the soil.

When the wind is blowing just right, these things can ruin your entire day.

and finally, time to ask you guys for a caption

i took this picture at the movies a few weeks ago. If you can’t tell, I’m sitting behind an Amish girl.

(caption please)
