in Lewis County,—an Amish and Mennonite settlement and
general store, award-winning wineries, working farms, a 1960’s
commune, a natural history museum, an art gallery, antique
shops, golfing, racing, picnicking, junking, canoeing, fishing,
camping, and numerous hiking trails. When you get hungry,
there are several unique restaurants ready to attend your needs,
