Son Adam and I had a very nice day yesterday. We went to Pleasant View Bakery, Mishler's and A&E Grocery Store, near Dalton, WI. It was his first time to come with me and his first time to meet Amish people. He was struck with how calm and friendly they are. Esp Mr. Mishler who had my wallet that fell off the roof of my car and was recovered by one of his neighbors. Mr. Mishler and I laughed about my silliness in losing it. He said, with a big smile, "as soon as I saw your face in the window, I knew what you came for since we saw your picture in the wallet." Son Adam had already sampled some of the bakery items, so was not surprised at how yummy they were, just impatient to partake in some of them.
We had a nice ride home. He talked about how friendly and warm the Amish people are, that we talked with. I was very impressed at how respectful and polite he was, a rather typical rap-listening, video game playing, rumspringa type teenager.
Thank you Adam for going with me and creating such wonderful memories.
