the Amish auction

It appears that Westby is smack dab in the center of Amish country. On Labor Day we went to this growers auction...and Amish growers auction.
Note the parking for non-vehicles.

There were hundreds of mums to buy. Aren't they beautiful?
*
and quite a few pumpkins


and of course plenty of Amish baked goods. We ate donuts that had FROSTING on the inside. Delish!!

and notice the sweet Amish girl in the background. She just stood around quietly watching all the commotion. And all of the kids, like this little lady, were barefoot.

Josiah is really into horses. Our friend took him over to have a closer look at this horse. Whenever we're driving Josiah calls out, "Horsie" - "Cow" - or "Buggy!" when we pass farms or Amish travelers on the road. It's funny!
