Amishville, U.S.A. - yes, that's actually the name of this RV park near Geneva, Indiana! On the way to the camp, I passed an Amish school - it was clearly recess time, and there were lots of blue-dressed, white-bonneted girls and brown-panted, white-shirted boys with traditional hats playing in the yard! Had a great chat with the lady at the cash, who gave me lots of info about the park: it was originally an Amish farm, and the man had died and the women turned it into an RV park. That didn't work out - they moved away and sold the property to the current owners, who are not Amish. The area is full of Amish folk, and I had intended to spend a day exploring, but got an email from Robert to the choir, saying that Russ Bailey had died. No mention of a funeral date, but I was close enough to be able to make it back in time, hopefully, so I left the next day, after going online and registering for a Friday session at the Vera Bradley sale, instead of Saturday or Sunday, which I had originally registered for.
