Greenfield Village ~ Fall 2017

One of our favorite places in the whole world to visit.....our roadtrip to Dearborn, Michigan  We have been coming here just about every other year since Fall 2006 when Delaney was just 6 months old.  We always coming in the fall just before or after Halloween weekend, and we always have beautiful weather.  This was taken in the main lawn area on a lovely fall day (notice the mums!)   We always love choosing a colorful horse or tiger on the historical merry go round, rides in the Model T Fords and old green buses, lunch at Eagle Tavern, visiting the historic homes and buildings in the open air museum, and eating a yummy Middle Eastern dinner at a local restaurant that night before we head back to our hotel.  Sometimes we might even visit the Ford F-150 factory and watch trucks being assembled before our eyes!   I will always cherish our times at Greenfield Village.
