I missed the World Steam Expo over this recently past Memorial Day Weekend in Dearborn. Rats, I love that stuff, but I’ve never seen much of it in the flesh. Oh well, fingers crossed for next year!

Instead, I helped chaperone Lucy’s 5th grade Field Trip to Greenfield Village and the Henry Ford Museum. What a wonderful place! It kind of helped make up for missing the big show. At the same time, it kind of rubbed it in even worse.

So here are a few photos of scenes we encountered that just made me think “steampunk” and sigh…

And in case you aren’t aware of steampunk, here are a few pics and a vid to kick things off. Just picture these folks romping around the stuff in the pics to follow…

I really like the idea of a removable stock on a packable gun.

The Bleriot. First plane to cross the English Channel. The inventor pilot was a true nut who crashed a lot and whose life reads very action-packed.

Ya gotta love a combo chopper / plane!

I can picture a coach like this being raced through a dark storm to a castle…

Huge, dark and powerful. Watch out! It’s VAST! It’s steaming! It’s IRON!

All aboard for ornate adventure! (Is Artemis Gordon’s private car hooked up?)
