We crossed Ontario and entered into Michigan at Port Huron today. We hooked up the motorhome and then drove SW to Dearborn, MI to the Henry Ford Museum. Contrary to popular opinion, this musuem is not all about Ford cars. It is more like a large history museum, with different illustrations and displays on how Ford has influenced America. Since Ford engines came around, they have powered tractors, combines, threshers, and other farm equipment. Then you can try to build your own vehicle out of K'nex and test it out on a ramp. There is also an outdoor exhibit called Greenfield Village, but today wasn't a "normal day" -- instead of their regular activities, they had an antique car show. In the village, you can ride a Model T. Normally they have old time games throughout the town, but they had an above average attendance of cars, so there were no games this weekend. Overall, it was a neat experience, and we are doing more sightseeing tomorrow. Rachel is really excited, because she loves Fords and is also looking forward to going to Kellogg's Cereal City on Monday.
