      Not long ago, I met a former USA bull riding champion, who was from Hillsboro WI, not far from Richland Center. Small wiry guy, but he definitely got the farm girl.

        Just looked it up, yeah, that's some Amish country
        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

          It's mostly north of RC, but to get there from the east and north you drive through a lot of Amish communities. Enough so that you are careful driving at night or dusk.

            That region in general, even creeping into MN and IA. Made a drive to Decorah IA a month or two back, and lots of Amish signs/etc were present.

              A lot of Amish in Iowa, and they interact a lot with local communities here, primarily to keep the gene pool safe.

              You know--to avoid situations like all those rosemaling savants up where you live.

                  I would say Amish, based on my knowledge, but after a google search, sounds like heavy crossover in the NE part of IA.

                    There's a pretty wide and interesting range of difference between customs of Amish, Mennonite, and German Anabaptists. The Amish community closest to where I live is only a 10 minute drive away, and they do not even ride bicycles. They make other concessions in order to get by though, such as using electric tools when working as carpenters in the English community and using cell phones located in "call boxes" positioned around the community for important needs. I've gotten to respect those I have had the chance to do business with.

                      I didn't think there were very many more than a few hundred Amish outside of the Pennsylvania area. There aren't many Amish left even in PA. Mostly other Anabaptists.

                        There are running jokes on 30s radio shows about how jockeys were drowning in it.
