Greenfield Village, Michigan

 Today Trish and I are in Dearborn, Michigan, where we spent the day at Henry Ford’s Greenfield Village.


We started our day with the steam train ride all around the Village as a sort of orientation venture.


Then we got to take a tour in a 1921 Model T all over the Village.  By now we were ready to walk around and visit the Wright Brothers’ Bike Shop (brought here from Dayton, Ohio, along with their house), Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park invention facilities (also brought here) as well as a host of other homes and shops including the Robert Frost home.

One of our favorite stops, though, was the glass blowing studio.  We love to watch Blown Away on television and this was like getting to be in the show.

It is well worth spending a whole day here.
