Great Country Farms, 2011

 Our Homeschool group visited Great Country Farms for an October field trip as we did last year.
 With Sam in school now, we were fortunate to be able to invite another fellow for John to hang out with.
 Beautiful weather made the hay ride fun.
Each child was able to pick out their own pumpkin or gourd. 
MANY other school groups were here, probably eight or nine.
 This jumping pillow is quite an attraction.
John and Erik sit in the center of the web. 

These little "cars" are called Doodle-bugs.
This Agri-Business is filled with fun, outdoor things to do for kids like this steep double slide.
 There was a lot of exercise to be had as the farm encompasses many acres.

 Kids love to play on old construction equipment.
We didn't see these self-pedaled, heavy-duty go-carts last year.

 A small stoned gravel racetrack was fine for enjoying a long ride.
 There were many of these carts available so that a group could ride together.
I pushed the little guy around.

It was a wonderful fall day spent with good friends in a lovely setting.
