May 11, 2023 Thursday- A beautiful sunny day. We drove to Dearborn to watch Ford F-150 pickup trucks being built. A completed truck comes off the line every 53 seconds-that’s amazing sight to see, they just keep coming. The rest of our day was at Henry Ford’s Greenfield Village and Museum. At the village you can ride the train, original Model T’s and visit the historical buildings. At the museum, trains, planes, household furnishings and of course cars, cars, cars.
