I have been saving this picture since I took it at a local convenience store this past summer. I don’t know why. Maybe I was just waiting for the perfect time? Or the perfect punchline? I don’t know.
I do know one thing though. I’m pretty sure Mennonites don’t need gas for their horses. I’m also pretty sure they don’t drink. Okay that was 2 things. And I don’t really “know” them so much as I “suspect” them. I really don’t understand this sign at all.
Wait just a cotton picking minute. That’s not a Mennonite carriage. That’s a Conestoga wagon. Now it makes perfect sense! Oh wait. No it doesn’t.
Mennonites do actually drive. They drive the Amish around. My mother learned this when she went to Pennsylvania this fall. I don’t know about the drinking, though.
But they probably only need to get gas when they are driving automobiles and not horses. haha.
