New Song From Ben & Rose: “Would You Like To Buy Some Flowers”

New Song From Ben & Rose: “Would You Like To Buy Some Flowers”

There’s a wonderful new Ben & Rose studio song out now (released about two weeks ago, in fact) called “Would You Like To Buy Some Flowers”. I missed it until now, because it was released on a different YouTube channel (more on that below). If you’ve missed previous posts, Ben & Rose are the young Lancaster Amish couple who have quite the talent for country…

Suspect CRASHES Into Amish Children After 90 MPH Chase

Suspect CRASHES Into Amish Children After 90 MPH Chase

A man wanted on multiple serious charges led police on a high-speed chase in a remote part of Maine – with the pursuit ending after he hit an Amish wagon carrying six children. Fortunately, somehow no one was hurt, which doesn’t sound like what you’d expect after learning that speeds reached 90 MPH. From Fox 23: Police say they spotted 34-year-old Anthony Vangel of Easton…

Inside A Rustic & Spacious Amish Home (22 Photos)

Inside A Rustic & Spacious Amish Home (22 Photos)

I love the photos of this Amish home, on the market in southern Indiana. You’ll see some really neat interior pics below – a mix of plainer rustic charm and spaciousness. These are pretty fresh photos as well going by the snow (it’s only been on Zillow for about three weeks). The community is at Vevay, Indiana (home to two separate Amish groups). The description…

Amish “Wannabe” ASSAULTS & KIDNAPS Amish Girl – Saved By Brave Amish Woman

Amish “Wannabe” ASSAULTS & KIDNAPS Amish Girl – Saved By Brave Amish Woman

This is a crazy story which somehow flew under my radar the last two days. In Arthur, Illinois, a man who is described as wanting to join the Amish attacked and then attempted to kidnap a 16-year-old Amish girl. I only write “attempted” because she was saved by a 20-year-old female Amish relative – who gave chase and got the abductor to release the girl….

Flip The Script: This Time, Amish Rescue ENGLISH From Flood (Video)

Flip The Script: This Time, Amish Rescue ENGLISH From Flood (Video)

In a reversal of roles I should have seen coming, Amish have now rescued an English driver from flood waters. It was just a week ago when we learned of an Amishman and his horse being rescued by EMA responders from flooding in Tennessee. Now in Kentucky, Amish have, in a way, returned the favor – pulling a stranded vehicle with two passengers out of…

Amish Skier Carves Up The Roadside (Video)

Amish Skier Carves Up The Roadside (Video)

It’s been a while since we’ve had footage of an Amish skier. These videos pop up from time to time. This is one of the better ones you’ll see. It was taken by “J J”, who shares this simple description: I was driving down Mackinac trail in upper Michigan heading to Sault Sainte Marie when I could believe Amish skiing behind their horse & carriage….

Amish Man & Horse Swept Off Road – Then Rescued From Flood

Amish Man & Horse Swept Off Road – Then Rescued From Flood

 First responders came to the rescue of one Amishman and his horse in Middle Tennessee. The report from WKRN is brief: LAWRENCE COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — Lawrence County authorities rescued an Amish driver, horse and buggy from Monday’s floodwaters. A spokesperson with the Lawrence County Emergency Management Agency told News 2 the horse and buggy were washed off Beasley Road near Lawrenceburg. The spokesperson…

Raw Milk Story: Were There Actual Illnesses? Why I’m “Agnostic” On Raw Milk, and…Colostrum

Raw Milk Story: Were There Actual Illnesses? Why I’m “Agnostic” On Raw Milk, and…Colostrum

I covered the recent Amos Miller case update in a video which has gotten close to 100,000 views at this point. A lot of comments on that video challenged the idea that anyone ever fell ill from Amos Miller’s products. Some seemed to suggest that there was no issue with Miller’s products whatsoever. That surprised me. But was that actually the case? So I take…

After Years of Fines, Forced Property Sales, And Prison Threats, Amish Win 20-Year Sewer Battle

After Years of Fines, Forced Property Sales, And Prison Threats, Amish Win 20-Year Sewer Battle

This past week brought news that a decades-long dispute over sewer grid connections in northwest Pennsylvania is ending – with a victory for the Amish. The US Department of Justice has intervened to prevent Sugar Grove Township from forcing Amish families to use electricity to connect to the local sewer grid. It’s being seen as a win for religious freedom. Via the Warren, PA Times-Observer:…

The Amish In The “Middle Of Nowhere” (One Year Later)

The Amish In The “Middle Of Nowhere” (One Year Later)

Back in December of 2023, that’s how I described the fledgling community being founded at the time in the Sandhills region of Nebraska. Why “Middle of Nowhere”? This is why: Amish who appear to be a part of the Michigan Circle (that group has been showing up a good bit here lately) have started up a new settlement in the area of a town called Valentine. Though in fact the…
