I'm not sure if they're Amish, but I've seen a couple of women about who dress in that style (but they were buying propane cylinders where I was buying propane, so perhaps they weren't Amish, but maybe Mennonite or Hutterite?) We're about 2 counties over from St. Lawrence County (Franklin Co is inbetween, it's about an hour drive across) so it would be nice to see the growth come this way.

My dream is to get enough money together and buy one of the tumble down farms around here. There's one place that has acreage and the sad remnants of a small orchard: the house is a wreck.

But first I have to finish paying for this house (2 more years! Woo hoo!) and then I can start looking for more land.
