After Denny finally gave up on the RV, Darrell and Lori took us for a ride to see the countryside. There is a large Amish community in Arcola, not far from Tuscola.
In the winter there isn't alot for the Amish to do in the fields. To keep his boys busy, one man brought them all over to build rock fences and decorative items. It is now a huge rock garden which is quite the big tourist attraction. We didn't go in, but I took these pictures from the road

Buggy's in front of us
Farmer in front of us. I took this thru the front window
Turning into his farm
Harvesting his corn. Notice how many horses
Turning a corner in his field to drop off the full bin
This man brought a new one and is taking away the old. He is backing up. This whole procedure only took minutes. Amazing to watch
Taking off
Going into the farm across the street from the field. taken thru the front car window
Amish don't like their pictures taken, but I always took the them from a distance
