On the shores of Lake St. Clair stands the historic and majestic residence of Edsel and Eleanor Ford…and what an incredible abode they built.

The home is filled with awesome art, artifacts and architecture. And the grounds alone are worth a walk and a half.

In order for me to fully understand the style and significance of this stately structure … I struck up a conversation with gentleman and dynamic docent Terry Niggaman.

This tour is one of the coolest things you can do in SE Michigan for a lot of reasons … and I wondered off and found one more ….

The Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores is a fun and fascinating way to see some of the incredible history we have here in Michigan. It’s also a way to realize that when it comes to washing windows … you don’t have it so bad.
