A Porch, But Not Really



I saw this "porch" on the edge of an Amish garden patch the other day... It's actually just the plain metal side of a barn, but a false porch was created!

The false door says, "He who plants a garden works hand in hand with God."

A Video from the Yoder Consignment Auction




My husband took this drive-by video last Saturday at the Yoder Consignment Auction, which I wrote about last year, here.  It takes place at a farm south of Shipshewana, every spring and fall.  (The locals also call it the Honeyville Auction.)

This thing is huge!  Merchandise pours in almost non-stop for days before auction on Saturday.  Besides the auction, there is a food building and a number of vendor tents.  The merchandise is mostly Amish-centric, and so is the crowd, but for anyone who likes auctions, I'd recommend this one.
