Yesterday we beat the heat by going to the Henry Ford Museum.
P likes the silly cars in Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks and Things that Go and never believed me when I told her that I had seen a hotdog car. She was quite surprised when we walked into the museum and saw this car right at the entrance.
They have a collection of doll houses too. I liked the kitchen sink in this one. And that little baby in the walker was just TOO cute!
I love the Dymaxion House that is on display there.
Just look at all of the NEW materials that are in there.
The fabric in this 1950's shirt is pretty fabulous, I think.
Here is P in the seat on the bus where Rosa Parks was arrested. Yes, they have the actual bus on display and they let you get on and have a seat.
The bus is restored complete with mid century advertisements.
A day in an airconditioned museum was just what we needed. I enjoyed all of the mid century goodness on display.
What have you been doing to beat the heat?
