Maize Maze

Last night we went with Jack and Steph Quincy and Alex and Liz Clark to a corn maze. The first half went by really fast. There weren't very many people around to distract us and we had a good system to rule out all the dead ends; although we still managed to find one or two!

When we got to the half way point we enjoyed a little rest and even took a few pictures "roasting" over the fire.

The second half of the maze proved to be much harder than the first, and it didn't help that there were a lot of loud, people who may not have been as lucid as we were. After going in circles for at least 30 minutes, Jack convinced us that the map was a good idea and we escaped the corn field without having to alert the authorities (unlike some other unlucky family we heard about in the news).

There weren't enough animals for all six of us so Alex opted to be the Farmer, Liz the ram, Steph the Sheep, Kara the Horse, Matt the Cow and Jack the Pig!

After we the trailer full of hay brought us back to the parking lot, we spent a few minutes swinging on a tire and gawking in amazement over the size of all the produce. Seriously, there were a few honey crisp apples the size of Matt's head! It was a really fun evening!
