Sunday, December 2, 2007




Last night Alex and I went to Holiday Nights at Greenfield Village. Cold...yes...snowy...yes...windy...yes...but, still it was very pretty with everything decorated like long ago. There were people walking around dressed like the 1800's, Model T & A rides, horse drawn wagon rides, carolers, reenactment of Civil War soldiers, WWI soldiers, Revolutionary War soldiers, bonfires throughout, roast beef being cooked outside, chestnuts roasting (by an open fire), ice skating, carousel rides, Santa, real reindeer...just lots going on. Not a good night for digital cameras...batteries do not like the cold so not many pictures. The event was sold out for last night with 5,500 people in attendance. Most of the homes were open with people inside dressed for that period. Alex just had earmuffs on and when it started to snow she had to use her scarf for her head. The event was from 6:30pm to 10:00pm with fireworks at the end but we left at around 8:30 as it was starting to sleet. The roads weren't too bad...just had to go slow.

It's December...suppose to be snow. :)
