...Corn Maze...

...right after my first ever Alzheimer's Walk...
...I went with our Youth Group to my first ever CORN MAZE...
...there was a tractor ride...
...but we all opted to walk to the field in the rain...
...where we received a cute welcome...
...they had somehow managed to keep a fire going...
...so the kids milled around warming up while the tickets were purchased...
...then we read the rules...
...and the scarecrows pointed the way...
...and we entered the maze...
...there were lots of decisions...right off the bat...
...and the corn was really tall...so there was no chance you'd see anything over it...
...but we all made it safely back out...
...and everyone had a warm(-ish) snack...
...and some of these big kids wanted to crawl through the corn crib...designed for much smaller persons...
...so it was off with the shoes...
...and after a really long time they finally emerged...it takes a while to maneuver a nearly 6 foot body through spaces designed for four foot ones...

...this was a lot of fun...and the day isn't over yet...I left the youth to enjoy the 'Haunted Corn Maze'...because I had another engagement...

...have you ever been through a Corn Maze?...did you like it?...did you get lost?...

~Have a lovely day!

  1. No, but we used to live near a farm who had a corn maze. Once we were there and in the cafe was Dame Judy Dench enjoying a plate of chips (french fries) while her daughter and grandchildren enjoyed the maze.
