One can almost get jealous, except they did not have that many books because they were so expensive.

It's fortunate that we have some video footage from back then, even though it was only black and white!

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??

"Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray—
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee."

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?

Well, you can be sure they never prophesied it.
