Corn Maze

Today we travelled to the end of the island again to visit a corn maze. We tried a corn maze last year, but the corn was barely taller than my head, and therefore non satisfactory! lol..This year we went to a different farm that was recommended by another leader; this one larger, and farther away! 


Four girls came out today (Really need to figure out ways to get more girls to go on trips) but these four had a great time. For $10 per person, we were able to go through the 3 different mazes, and a hay ride.

In an effort to kill some time I allowed the girls to browse through the items for sale, basically gourds and pumpkins, a few squashes, nothing too exciting for them to ask for....


..actually, most of the items looked a little....diseased, although I'm sure that's the way they're supposed to look. (The visual status kept me away.)


We took a lot of group pictures ( I needed to update the picture for my facebook page!) and the girls got along really well with each other. For the most part they are not in troops together, so it was nice to see them get along with girls they're not too familiar with


I also took a bunch of individual shots, and will be giving the four girls an 5x7 (and maybe wallets) of their individual pics, and a 4x6 group shot. I figure if the other girls see what they missed out on, they'll want to go on a trip. These pictures will be handed out during meetings!
