This was taken from our campsite the last night in Indiana. We had pretty sunsets almost every night. We try to get this site when we go there.

We are now in Amana Iowa. This area, consisting of 7 small towns, make up the Amana Colonies. It was settled in the late 1800s by a break-away Lutherin church group. They were totally self sufficient and required little or no outside contact. No one owned anything, received payment or paid for anything. Each of the towns had one kitchen where everyone ate and each had their own shops. Amana, the largest had the church, medical and things like that. In the 1900s, due to changing times and the economy, they decided to have private ownership. Today, most of the original building are still being used.
The pictures are not cooperating with being where I want them so the scenery is in IN and the street scene is Amana.
