We went to Holland!

Mom and Dad (Grant and Lynda) came to visit and we decided to take a trip to Holland. Holland, Michigan that is. It was settled by the Dutch and they took apart a windmill and brought it over from the Netherlands and put it all back together. It was really interesting to go inside and see how it all works. It is amazing. The miller that works there is the only certified female miller in the United States. She had to go to Holland (the real Holland) and learn dutch and take a 2 hour oral test to get certified. They still use the mill today to make flour and different things. It was very interesting. Of course I forgot my camera so this is a picutre from the internet. It was tons of fun! We have a lot more trips planned for this week.
