Back to the Farm

Today we took our third trip to Sweet Berry Farm. We love going there for strawberries in the spring and to take pictures around the pumpkins and gourds in the fall. This year we made our trip early enough to get to see everything fresh and bright and picture worthy.
On the tractor ride. A rare group photo - of course my eyes had to be closed.

We wandered around through the different types of pumpkins.
This variety is called "Cinderella"

Lumina

These are actually gourds, Apple Gourds to be precise.

These are called "Lunch Lady."

Click to enlarge these and you will see why they are called Peanuts.

The closest are called "Knuckleheads" and the gray ones are "Jarrahdale."
Who knew there were so many?

Taking goofy pictures is always at the top of our list.


So is wandering through the different "corn" field mazes (it isn't really corn.)
Trying to capture the sun through the stalks.
(Picnik'ed)


James got to ring the bell when they reached the end of the Kids Maze.
Children of the Corn - let's hope not.

Gary got to be the leader in the Texas Maze where we located various checkpoints.

The end is always the same...happy and tired.Too pooped to pop.
