THE SQUARE

The Garnett townsquare is like something you would expect to see sitting by the Thames River in England. 

 

The Amish

As you can see from the photo to the right, the Amish church is plain. Solid white, squatted right in the middle of a large yard of perfectly mowed grass. Inside the church, the people were wearing plain clothes.  Outside of the church, perfectly lined up in a circular fashion were about 15 solid black buggies. These buggies were anything but plain. There were about as plain as a 1999 Mercedes Station Wagon. Each buggie was perfectly washed and polished and each had a distinguishing bright red triangle on the trunk. The most surprising thing about the buggies was that the windows were tinted. It was like they are very frugal about their clothes and houses, just so they can spend the money on their buggies.
