The Amish are very nice people and execlent neighbors. If the rest of us were more like them this would be a better world. They are good, hard working people.

At least these newcomers are not lazy, uncivilized, drunkards, uncaring, nor think Maine folks are all stupid, backwoods, or lost-in-space people like current out-of-stater's consider Maine people to be.(Wait until the casino and Plum Creek get rolling).

Please respect their ways and culture...this has been going on longer than this generation or the last generation in Maine existed.
