I was fascinated with their journey into this continent when I started reading about them.<BR/> Thanks for the feedback.

We're not going anywhere for the time being. Rest assured there will be at least two(2)BANDS standing by to greet you. Banda duon sa Chicago and banda rito sa Atlantic City (SMILE)! And how about your classmates from Maryland, Larps and Manny. Don't forget, Mike Cruz is from Pennsylvania, our neighbor state west of Jersey. So come on down, Lucille, the BANDS are waiting!Ed Benjaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10928641591483736887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192949159997198646.post-35053218453651791102007-07-13T08:08:00.000+08:002007-07-13T08:08:00.000+08:00Ed/Annie,Thanks for sharing the pictures!The Menno...Ed/Annie,<BR/>Thanks for sharing the pictures!<BR/>The Mennonites here in Ontario are situated in St Jacob about an hour and half drive northwest of Toronto. Cecile and I had the opportunity to witness those Amish going about their usual chores. Amazing how they can maintain such conservative traditions and life style. Big wonder how they raise their children amidst the hustle and bustle of big cities and not getting influenced by the modern world(?). Anyway, they peddle their nice wooden furnitures and good tasting agri products like pure honey, and organic vegies. We also noticed the similarity of the horse-drawn carriage with the Amish of Pennsylvania.<BR/>My best to the family!ErnestoDRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687673063083576564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192949159997198646.post-60068250723184682532007-07-13T07:57:00.000+08:002007-07-13T07:57:00.000+08:00Hi Eddie and Annie!!When I retire and it will be s...Hi Eddie and Annie!!When I retire and it will be soon,I will ask you to bring me in that beautiful place.I will reward myself with trips that to places I only dream about.<BR/> By the way,the US Embassy has again issued retrogression in the issuance of visa.The August 6 sked of my pamangkins was moved to a later date.That means ,I can't be there summertime.Anyway ,I will see there guys!lucillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05806897240417772735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192949159997198646.post-30535766623743264162007-07-12T19:54:00.000+08:002007-07-12T19:54:00.000+08:00Ed & Annie, Thanks for sharing your weekend activi...Ed & Annie, Thanks for sharing your weekend activities and those pictures. I am not surprise that your partner is in the mall that week-end as everytime I call her during week-ends and holidays she is in the mall buying stuff not for her self but for your apos. Me too love shopping but both for myself and for my apos. I know Annie also love shopping for herself especially shopping dresses, bags with matching shoes. These are weaknesses of most ladies. O.K. Regards and Take Care.

Please make your wish come true in the near future. The following are your reasons to do so: Annie, Pilar, Manny, Pareng Mike and your designated driver (and I don't forget where we live, even when I'm driving, ha ha!). Our door will be open for you when you decide. Take care, Nelia. Send our best to Nanay.Ed Benjaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10928641591483736887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192949159997198646.post-86805536399025090052007-07-12T11:56:00.000+08:002007-07-12T11:56:00.000+08:00hello annie and eddie, more nice pictures.i love ...hello annie and eddie, more nice pictures.i love those kind of sceneries because it reminds me of days from long time ago.i went to delaware a few years ago to train in one of our instruments(dupont)but i never had the chance to really go around because our time was limited.we went to the historical places in pennsylvania,washington dc,atlantic city etc,but the only place we went to in delaware was the dupont training center and denardo's seafood place which is famous for their crabs.anyway i enjoyed my stay even if it was only for a week.i wish i could go back someday especially in the fall.thank you for sharing those pictures with us. it's me again, nelianeliaamparohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048222121929882458noreply@blogger.com
