Lancaster County Pa. Amish farm, Amish fields, using the old-fashioned way with horses, and Intercourse in Amish County, Pa.

These are some pictures my son took in Lancaster County, Pa. while he has been in our area to visit.  The pictures depict how Amish still harvest corn the old-fashioned way with draft horses.  There are many Amish farms in Lancaster County, Pa.  There are even towns named Intercourse, Paradise, Bird-in-Hand, Blue Ball, and other different names.  These towns were named years ago.  I often wonder why towns in Lancaster County Amish country were named these names.  Amish people still travel in their horse and buggies, except when they want to travel longer.  Then they hire drivers to take them in cars or vans.
