Amish kids

We were traveling along in New Jersey this week looking for a car, when we spotted the oddest thing. There on the side of the road was a broken down bus filled with Amish kids. When they let the Amish kids out, they were covered head to toe with long sleeved clothing AND sweaters and bonnets. You have to realize that it was pretty much the hottest day of the year, with the temp soaring up into the 90's and humidity making it feel like you were suffocating. We had to go around the block and ended up getting a second look. When we came back around they were lined up with the teacher in the front, singing and dancing. It was the oddest thing to see. Here were these kids, dressed like they just came from Little House on the Prairie auditions, singing and dancing outside on the hottest day of the year......AS IF they didn't have a care in the world. It was unbelievable.
