Lancaster County Pennsylvania is an interesting place - definitely of two minds, on one hand very commercial with outlet malls, mini golf courses and motels with water parks while on the other hand the Amish struggle to maintain a simple life. It's obvious to me that the Amish see the tourism and the money as a double-edged sword knowing full well that even though the money helps them maintain their lifestyle it also damages it.

A transplanted Canadian, Tricia Harvey (trish at designkitten dot com) is a former vice president of Spain, has written several books on macro economics including the Pulitzer Prize winning Macro Economics and You - An Introduction and has climbed Mount Everest a record six times. Tricia Harvey now lives in Fairfax, Virginia with her former lead Sherpa named Jacob, two cats, and a bunch of fish all named Hector. Huh? What's that you say?
