So the Husband Unit and I took the boy to Saunders Farm today to run some mazes. Okay walk, cause a stroller doesn’t move that fast.
Apparently Saunder’s farm has the largest collection of outdoor mazes in North America. And it was one of the only places a family can gather on Thanksgiving Day Monday, so the place was packed. The weather didn’t hurt either as the day was unseasonably warm.
Geeklet really enjoyed the Cedar maze and the Grapevine Maze (although it is really a labyrinth) in the Baby Bijorn. He’s at a stage where he can face forward and look at the world, and all the kids were cool. So were the leaves.
The Mile Maze lived up to its name, especially as you twisted and turned through the ten foot hedges. Geeklet loved it so much, that he slept through it while in the carriage.
(The Mile Maze is at the top. The Cedar Maze is in the bottom right corner. The Grapevine Maze is bottom centre.)
But what about the title, Ubal? Well the best thing I saw that day was a set of parents resting outside the Mile Maze. They were yelling encouragement to their kids, that were in the maze. "Keep going straight!" "You can do it!" came out of their mouths. I knew what they were doing, and I told them that. The mom put her finger to her lips and said "Ssssh." The dad said, "they don’t know that" and pointed at the maze.
Smart people. And funny ones.
