Greenfield Village


We made another trip out to Greenfield Village (man, I love this place) and had a blast exploring all the crafters

Rick and Sophia on the working farm
Sophia checking out the chickens
One of the coolest things- on the spot glass blowing
The fiery glass blowin' furnace
They have a whole section on weaving. Rick got all excited and talked with the guide for like a good 20 minutes about this. The Jacquard Loom- the predecessor to the modern computer. 
At the water wheel
The printing press
They had this super cute little area for kids to drive little cars around in. They even had a cop and a auto mechanic.
Baah
No this man is not doing drugs- he's a tin smith! (it does look like it though, doesn't it?)
The machine shop- so cool!
