Holiday Nights

My husband and I went to Holiday Nights at Greenfield Village down in Dearborn, Michigan. It is one of my favorite places ever. I haven’t been in a couple of years so I was so happy to go Monday night even if it was after Christmas. It was a lovely evening. I feel ill equipped to do it justice. All I can say is that it will transport you back in time, and gives a taste of the old customs, which is fabulous; the sights, sounds and smells – it is a romantic and sentimental excursion. I really need to make  a resolution to go to both Greenfield Village and Crossroads Village (another historical village closer to wear I live) before Christmas every year. I enjoy it tremendously and makes me realize the true spirit of Christmas.
