On Saturday Dad surprised us with a trip to the Henry Ford Museum at Greenville Village. We had a wonderful time looking at all the old fashioned things the museum is filled with. There was so much to look at! Dad got the membership so we can go back as many times as we want this year. Greenville Village wasn't open yet so we are already planning some trips during the spring and summer. There is a civil war reenactment in May that I really want to go to, wearing one of my old fashioned dresses!
Anyway, we all loved the museum and between me and Mom...we took over seven hundred pictures! Some of them I'll be doing collages with and sharing them later on. There's one in particular I'm really excited about and can't wait to share with you all!!
While we were we went to the Imax theater that is part of the museum. Wow!! It was incredible. Now, you will understand my awe when I say that I have never been to theater before so it was all new to me. The screen was 80 stories wide and had to be almost twice that tall. Incredible! You felt like you were inside the movie and when the camera tipped down over the mountains, whoa! It felt like the room was tipping. The sound quality was amazing...it seemed to be coming from every direction and it covered you like a blanket. The movie we watched was about the history of the Canadian Pacific Railroad. It was really interesting.
Dad was laughing at how many pictures I took....well, I'm already planning to take at least twice that when we go to the village! With all those old barns, houses and other buildings, the opportunities for amazing shots will be incredible! Do you know how interesting the corner, window, steps or door of a house can be in a picture? Can't wait to see what will be the most photogenic!
