Do you have neighbors that are out back really late?

Right now they're out moving stuff in the yard, and they are in and out every night, until 1 a m. Sometimes loudly, sometimes not much noise at all. Three years ago I had neighbors on my other side of the house, went out back every night and were really loud.😫

They are Amish.
They have horses and dogs of different pedigrees. Which I always found weird.
They used to have a Goat.

There's a couple of those Horses drawn carriage things. But they all pile up inside a van when they have to go somewhere beyond the capabilities of the horses.

There's an older gentleman with a long beard he appears to be the Alpha Amish. He always waves when I drive by.

His name is Noah.

Of course it is.

@Infamous607 I've only seen two Amish people, a dad and his daughter...I was in a coffee shop at a beach once. They were there just using the restroom. The girl was about 10 or 11 and she was just looking at me as I was sitting, while waiting for her dad. She looked blank, or sad🙁

@Coralmist Most Amish youth look forward to 16 when they have two years to go wild while in the world.

@NativePortlander1970 I had no idea they had two years to do regular world things. It's really a mind twist, to them, that they can do it for two years, what most other human do, but they need to stop and go back to a extreme simple, but controlled , world.

@Coralmist Because they know they'll be shunned otherwise
