America's Five New National Monument Sites
Obama declares 5 new national monuments.
President Obama has signed proclamations deeming 5 sites across the country official national monuments. The newly declared sites could result in economic growth through recreation and tourism.
Obama states These sites honor the pioneering heroes, spectacular landscapes and rich history that have shaped our extraordinary country. By designating these national monuments today, we will ensure they will continue to inspire and be enjoyed by generations of Americans to come.
The first structure is the Charles Young Buffalo Soldiers National Monument in Ohio. Preserving the home of Colonel Charles Young, it serves as a tribute to the former Army officer who became the first African American to achieve the rank of Colonel.
Next up is the Río Grande del Norte National Monument in New Mexico. Extinct volcanoes and 500-year-old trees reside on the over 242,000 acre property.
The San Juan Islands in Washington also made the list, comprised of 450 beautiful islands, pinnacles and rocks in an undeveloped landscape. The First State National Monument in Delaware is a tribute to the state's settlement history and Delaware's role in ratifying the Constitution.
The Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Monument in Maryland is dedicated to the life of the famous conductor, responsible for assisting enslaved people escape from bondage.
DETROIT: HENRY FORD MUSEUM OF AMERICAN INNOVATION
Listed in World's Most Fun Museums, the HENRY FORD MUSEUM OF AMERICAN INNOVATION located in Dearborn, Michigan (11 miles from downtown Detroit) is an absolute must see. The visit can be a trifecta because not only can you visit HENRY FORD MUSEUM OF AMERICAN INNOVATION but also GREENFIELD VILLAGE and a Tour of the Ford River Rouge Plant where the best selling Ford F-150 truck is built. My video shares my impressions of the museum - thanks for viewing, commenting and liking.
The Henry Ford (also known as the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation and Greenfield Village, and as the Edison Institute) is a large indoor and outdoor history museum complex and a National Historic Landmark in the Detroit suburb of Dearborn, Michigan, United States. The museum collection contains the presidential limousine of John F. Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln's chair from Ford's Theatre, Thomas Edison's laboratory, the Wright Brothers' bicycle shop, the Rosa Parks bus, and many other historical exhibits. It is the largest indoor-outdoor museum complex in the United States[5] and is visited by over 1.7 million people each year.[6] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969 as Greenfield Village and Henry Ford Museum[1] and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1981 as Edison Institute.
Named for its founder, the automobile industrialist Henry Ford, and based on his efforts to preserve items of historical interest and portray the Industrial Revolution, the property houses homes, machinery, exhibits, and Americana of historically significant items as well as common memorabilia, both of which help to capture the history of life in early America. It is one of the largest such collections in the nation.
Henry Ford said of his museum:
I am collecting the history of our people as written into things their hands made and used.... When we are through, we shall have reproduced American life as lived, and that, I think, is the best way of preserving at least a part of our history and tradition..
Architect Robert O. Derrick designed the museum with a 523,000 square feet (48,600 m2) exhibit hall that extends 400 feet (120 m) behind the main façade. The façade spans 800 feet (240 m) and incorporates facsimiles of three structures from Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia — Old City Hall, Independence Hall and Congress Hall.
The Edison Institute was dedicated by President Herbert Hoover to Ford's longtime friend Thomas Edison on October 21, 1929 – the 50th anniversary of the first successful incandescent light bulb. The attendees included Marie Curie, George Eastman, John D. Rockefeller, Will Rogers, Orville Wright, and about 250 others.[11] The dedication was broadcast on radio with listeners encouraged to turn off their electric lights until the switch was flipped at the Museum.[12]
The Edison Institute was, at first, a private site for educational purposes only, but after numerous inquiries about the complex, it was opened as a museum to the general public on June 22, 1933.[13] It was originally composed of the Henry Ford Museum, Greenfield Village, and the Greenfield Village Schools (an experimental learning facility). Initially, Greenfield Village and the Henry Ford Museum were owned by the Ford Motor Company, which is currently a sponsor of the school and cooperates with the Henry Ford to provide the Ford Rouge Factory Tour. The Henry Ford is sited between the Ford Dearborn Development Center and several Ford engineering buildings with which it shares the same style gates and brick fences.
In 1970, the museum purchased what it believed to be a 17th-century Brewster Chair, created for one of the Pilgrim settlers in the Plymouth Colony, for $9,000. In September 1977, the chair was determined to be a modern forgery created in 1969 by Rhode Island sculptor Armand LaMontagne.[14] The museum retains the piece as an educational tool on forgeries.[15]
In the early 2000s, the museum added an auditorium to the building's south corner. This housed an IMAX theater until January 2016 when museum management decided to change formats for the facility to better fit with its mission. The renovated theater reopened in April of that year.

UAW BLACK LAKE - Area Attractions
uawblacklake.com
The Center's prime location is a gateway to some of the region's most popular area attractions.
Onaway is a sportsman's paradise and a nature lover's dream. The area is home to thousands of acres of northern Michigan state forest recreation areas, fishing, hunting and inland lakes. The city is surrounded by thousands of acres of Mackinaw State Forest, and the scenery is breathtaking. Watching leaves change as the seasons fold one after the other, is a worth the time spent at the Center.
Onaway is an all-season, inside and outdoor, recreation destination. It's also just a short jaunt from Burt Lake, Mullet Lake and Michigan's popular Inland Waterways. Onaway is only five miles from its namesake's state park and Black Lake, which is teeming with excellent walleye, bass and perch fishing.
Located in the northeast, lower-peninsula of Michigan, Onaway sits on the western edge of Presque Isle County and is just a short drive from Black Mountain State Forest Recreation Area, Ocqueoc Falls, Petoskey, Charlevoix, the Mackinac Bridge and so many other area attractions. It is 18 miles east of I-75, 22 miles west of Lake Huron, 45 miles southeast of the Straits of Mackinac and 265 miles north of Detroit.
The Black Lake Golf Club is a premier course designed by architect Rees Jones.
While many courses have two or three so-called signature holes that are worthy of brochure status, every hole at Black Lake Golf Club could easily be on the cover of a magazine promoting the course.
That is one reason it was ranked 34th in Golf Digest's
100 Greatest Public Courses in America in May 2009 and ninth in the Best Value
category.
Night Life
Our guests are encouraged to visit the Center's onsite local watering hole, Mazey's. Whether you just want to enjoy a nice cold adult beverage, or participate and/or host in a sing-along in the bar's classroom -- that's right, every inch of Black Lake is educational! -- or dance the night away during the DJ-hosted nights, Mazey's door is open to guests and visitors. Limited shuttle bus service is available to guests for transport. Leave the driving to us. We've got you covered.

Skagit Valley Tulip fields, Mount Vernon, Washington state, USA, April 2016
Skagit Valley Tulip fields, WA, April, 2016.
Nothing screams spring like a day trip to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in April. This month-long celebration has miles of tulip farms to explore.
In this video you can watch the tulip fields as the crops of RoozenGaarde/Washington Bulb Co., Inc. and Tulip Town. The fields are different each year due to crop rotation. Both RoozenGaarde and Tulip Town also have displays of tulips in gardens for visitors to view and photograph. The fields are generally not for “picking,” just admiring and taking pictures. Often there are paths around the fields, but generally they don’t want you walking in the rows of flowers, as the bulbs are fragile. Tulips are usually for sale at the entrances, so you can take some home.
Getting There
It’s easy to get to the Skagit Valley. Travel north on I-5 for approximately 60 miles. The tulips are generally grown in a 15-mile triangle bordered by Highway 20, the Skagit River, and the Swinish River Channel.
