By Saturday, the hordes of satellite trucks and stand-up reporters had mostly left the country roads, and a semblance of routine returned. Early in the morning, Amish farmers hauled farm equipment past the boarded-up school.

"It was just getting to be too much," said Jane Kreider, a 48-year-old teacher's aide in Georgetown. "It was just, 'Get out of dodge, get out of our town and we'll pull together.'"

Even the non-Amish had enough of the newshogs. Thanksfully they have moved on to their next feeding frenzy.

That's it !

A genuine display of God in the lives of people and the lame stream media runs ... sorta' like holding up a cross in front of a vampire in the movies.

Thanks dirtboy, kind of on a different subject... there is an Amish market here in central Maryland that they come to from Lancaster to sell their food and other products Thursday - Saturday. They have someone drive them up and back each day. I've been very surprised to see that they were open this week. Hard workers, even during difficult times.

I agree. It's beyond feeling like you're invading someone's privacy. And Greta's report is tonight: "Crime Scene" on FNC. I don't plan on watching it, knowing her style. I hope she had more sense than to stick a mike in anyone's face ala the Holloway case.
