We feasted on Shepherds pie, some apple cider and local ale.
We then took our yearly journey to a pumpkin lit Greenfield Village, for an historical night of haunting and (to Mimi's dismay)learning.
Where else do you not only get treats that are good for you, locally grown Michigan apples, and tiny helicopters , but you are frightened by the likes of ghosts of Henry Ford, and the Wright Brothers.
When Mimi was small, we would take her and she would simply embrace the lights and the costume.
Mim and Jiej both were all about the headless horseman.
Jiej studied the Washington Irving in college and Mimi watches the Bing Crosby version. They both crossed a covered bridge scared out of their pants.
We sat amongst hay and corn, and watched a man tell the tale of" The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow" .
