Carolyn and Steve go to Michigan for the Weekend

Carolyn and I got back from our trip to Michigan earlier this evening and I have a bunch of pictures to upload.



Here's a picture of us driving up on Saturday morning. (I know a little overkill... but when I was bored in the car the iphone came out to keep things interesting)




Here's Carolyn enjoying some cider and doughnuts and the cider mill which is down the street from Carolyn's house


Front entrance to the cider mill (did you know that Laura Bush visited the cider mill?...)



On Sunday we went to Greenfield Village. The best way to describe the village is that it's a museum like community that showcases a lot of the earlier work of Henry Ford and Thomas Edison. The community is also filled with tons of replicas of other famous people houses, workshops, etc. You could actually go for a ride in an original Model T for $4.00. This is a picture of a replica of one of Thomas Edison's offices. He actually visited the offices in the early 1900s and recorded a message for all the visitors. It was pretty interesting to hear the message.



I saw this in Carolyn's garage and I had to take a picture of it. This is Carolyn's original tricycle that her parents have saved.
