Henry Ford and Greenfield Village

 Greenfield Village opened up again this week.  Peter could not have been more excited.  It's pretty much his favorite place in the world.

First thing he wanted to do was ride the train.  He's a little excited. :)


Then his favorite buddy, Mr. Frog, on the carousel. 


In addition to riding the Model T's, visting the Wright brothers cycle shop on Wilbur Wright's birthday, and a myriad of other things, we spent about an hour in the glassblower shop watching this master make glass rods for a future project.  She stretched the glass like taffy, all the while talking about what she was doing.  It was amazing to watch.  Peter was riveted.  Each time I asked if he wanted to leave, he insisted he wanted to stay.


Achievement unlocked. :)  He's finally big enough that I can sit on a horse next to him rather than stand and hold him!

We also stopped at the Henry Ford museum next door to check out the Paw Patrol exhibit.  It wasn't all that great, but a fun hour.
