What to do on Sunday in Amish Country?

OK, we know that to "city folks," we're a little bit odd. You think that Ohio's Amish Country rolls up the sidewalks after 5pm (not quite so) and that there's nothing to do on Sundays.

You see, in our community we regard Sunday as a Day of Rest. Time to spend with family and friends. Time for chilling out and refreshing ourselves (mentally and physically) after a week of hard work. It's time for naps, afternoon popcorn and grape juice, evening drives and visiting friends and family.

Honestly, everyone should try it.

But we also know that on your vacation, many of you would like to find things to do and places to go, so here's a guide for visitors on where to visit or eat on Sundays.
