Amish buggys from Amish Stories1.Blogspot





Amish Stories blogspot has recipes, food stands, handcrafted art like painted horseshoes, and other Amish cultural stuff. It's posted by a non Amish guy (if you've no idea what Amish are, they are anti technology descedants of the Swiss and German immigrants of the 1690's to the Pennsylvania and Ohio area, they have a German accent, build everything by hand using no electrical tools, and they also won't join the military)

But the horse carriages and buggies are unique in America for all I know, as the Amish won't own, drive, or ride in cars. Maybe they have a historic date that they aren't allowed to pass in material technology, because they are very aware of the rest of the worlds technology, but they religiously adhere to the farming culture of their ancestors. Their carpentry is said to be superb.
