On Sunday, January 16th I woke up around 8:45am. Suddenly the idea of visiting The Henry Ford Museum<\/a>, a place I haven’t been to in almost 10 years, popped into my head. I’ve been wanting to head back there for a while, so I decided to go. Well, less than two hours later I was pulling into the parking lot.<\/p>\n For those who don’t know what this museum is, it is a technology-focused historical museum which tends to concentrate on transportation and items from the after the 1700s. It’s a top-notch place to visit, including such exhibits as the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile, the chair in which President Abraham Lincoln was sitting when he was shot<\/a>, the limousine in which President Kennedy was riding when he was shot<\/a>, the Rosa Parks bus<\/a>, and many, many more amazing items. There is all sorts of transportation exhibits, too, from the 1950s tourist \/ travel culture to locomotives, from stage coaches to bicycles. This museum is well worth visiting.<\/p>\n Per usual I took a number of photos<\/a> of the trip. These can be found here<\/a>, and include some of the following highlights:<\/p>\n · Lincoln’s Chair<\/a> In addition to visiting the museum, I took in a showing of a newer IMAX film about Mt. Everest<\/a> titled appropriately, Everest<\/a>. This was pretty good, and was prefixed by a very enjoyable IMAX film showing many of the beautiful scenes around Detroit. It was really nice to finally see Detroit shown in such a beautiful light.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Click for more photos… On Sunday, January 16th I woke up around 8:45am.
