I wasn't sure that I would finish the background on Shady Spot at the Shipshewana hook in, but I sure thought I would get more hooked than I did. I just wasted a LOT of time doing nothing!!!
This is where I started . . .
. . . and now. (Color is more accurate in the first picture.)
Shipshewana is in the heart of Indiana Amish country. The population was only 809 in 2020, but what a tourist destination! Tourism is what makes it thrive. I saw nothing that wasn't geared towards it. There are both Amish and Mennonite. From what Sue, my partner in crime told me, you can pretty much tell who is who by the way they dress. Mennonites are much more accepting of some of the modern conveniences that we take for granted. (Sue lives in the heart of Ohio Amish country.)
The grounds of the hotel where we stayed had the most beautiful flowers!
Head on over to Sue's blog post to see pictures of the rug show!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
