Fall Fun in the Corn Maze

Avoiding the hussle and bussle of the fair we headed out to Sease Farm with the Merritt Family to GET LOST, literally! Roger missed out due to working (though Jesse now knows why he didn't mind missing out...LOL!) The weather was fabulous...a little breezy with clear, star-filled skies! We got there just after dinner time, and the kids had a blast playing in all the smaller mazes! They enjoyed the tire maze, the "marshmallow" maze, the tube swings, the TALL, bumpy tube slide, the corn table (this was neat and would be fun for a playground!), the sand pile, the tractors, and feeding the goats...all that before tackling the BIG corn maze.

The kids were excited when we started out in the corn maze (by this time it was completely dark). They took turns holding the flags and flashlights, and all of them walked on their own. We were smart enough to take a picture of the map at the entrance with the camera (just in case we needed it), and Mr. Jesse was our guide! He did quite well leading us through the maze. We only went the wrong way a couple of times. About halfway through the maze most of the kids were ready to be out and done...Logan kept saying, "Can't we just go out now?" We made it out of the entire, 7 acre maze in one hour and 10 minutes! With 5 kids, I don't think that's too bad! We had fun...all of us...even with an encounter with the "Corn Hobbit" and the many trips to the port-a-potties in the beginning. If you've never gone to the Corn Maze, it's worth a trip! Good family fun and memories...not something you need to do every year, but fun when you do!
