    Amish - beevile

    So pulling my trailer back from the lease; I stopped in Beeville for gas and saw an Amish man selling honey. I googled them and found out that this is the only Amish comunity in the Great State. Not sure why this surprised me but it did...

    Actually that is not true. There is a hard line Amish community in Gonzalez also. A cardiologist I know lived with them for 3 years and did a study on their heart health.

      There was a community of them in near Stephenville years ago but I'm not sure if they're still around.

        I love the Amish. They sure are simple people and you will never catch them playing flappy birds!

                I have seen their horse and buggy going down 59 on the south side of town several times. You got to watch out for them especially going around that slight curve. I came close one time......

                    I think they moved on, we haven't seen them for years now.

                      My parents bought a handmade horse drawn cart from the Amish in beeville about 10 years ago.

                        The Amish here in Southern Colorado are known to bend almost every hunting rule and show no respect to other hunters on public land during elk season. The locals in my town are easy to get along with but the visiting Amish in the summer and fall are hard to deal with.

                          Heard of them doing drives for elk in the muzzy season...talk about ruin an area quick.

                            Hate to stereotype, but on information and belief a friend has property in a different state and the same issue. Deer are shot year round and as many as they want. Taking from his land...not only the game.

                              True..... I have one that passes my deer stand everyday on the railroad tracks right at good shooting time. I just wave at him.
