Children of the Corn 7 - Suburban Madness
Last weekend we had a rare sunny and warm october day. Knowing it'd probably be the last of it's kind before the typical Seattle grayness and perpetual chilly damp set in, I grabbed the kids and headed out to a farm nearby to do their corn maze and pick some pumpkins.
The farm is called the South 47, and it's this tiny 20 acre thing stuck right in the middle of suburbia, between Redmond's silicon valley of the North, and Woodinville's McMansions of Mormonosity. It's a coop farm, and does a pretty decent job of bringing a bit of farm life to the suburbs, although the corn maze event typically is swarmed by yuppie mom's with cell phones permanently attached to their ears, and yuppie dad's like me desperately trying to make sure their kids have a rare moment of fun that doesn't involve electrons beaming into their eyes.
Blogger's barfing tonight on my attempt to add a pic. Here's a link to our Flickr folder of photos:
