As I explored Elkhart County I saw so many wonderful “Kodak Moments”. Here are some of my favorites:
Nappanee has ” Apple Picking ” – ” An A-Peeling Art” in front of many of the businesses as a means to “dress up the streets” and also as a means of identification. I believe there are 24 now but the number keeps growing.
The Round Barn Theater at Amish Acres in Nappanee
Beautiful and fragrant flowers are everywhere in Elkhart County – always a sign to me of love for home and community. This wagonful was sitting outside the Blue Gate Restaurant in Shipshewana – an absolute MUST place to eat – the food was delicious!
Speaking of restaurants, a couple had special ” Amish Buggy” seating!
I just happened to drive by and fall in love with this relax-and-sit-a-spell porch !
Shops of all kinds in Shipshewana !
What a wonderful place for a treasure hunt !
The prettiest rain barrel I have ever seen!
This was my traveling companion, Tootsie.
She enjoyed window shopping in Elkhart County too !
Gotta love those Amish Buggies and the sound of the horse’s clattering hoofs as they passed by.
Thanks for reading !
Please stay tuned – the next posting to come is of the RV Museum in the town of Elkhart.

My sister in KC has the round screened porch attached to their deck built by the Amish and they love it! A neighbor in Rockhill bought the Rooster in your picture from the shop on Shaw and it stands tall in her front yard! Cute!
