It's fortunate that we have some video footage from back then, even though it was only black and white! -----Added 4/29/2009 at 10:05:32 EST-----
It's funny that during the prayer before breakfast, the little boy is scolded by his mother for not keeping his eyes closed.

Anyone else think the lifestyle of the PA Mennonites is appealing after watching this??

I will never again complain about the inconvenience of emptying the dishwasher! At least I didn't have to make my own dishes!
I wonder if they ever figured that someday they'd have a web board named in their honor?
