We arrived right when the farm was opening for the day and we immediately went to the peddle cars. We were able to ride them for about 10 minutes before anyone else showed up to join us on the track. Below is a picture that I took as I went flying past Billy on one of the laps.
After we played on the carts we then did every other activity that the farm had to offer. Everything that is simple and hands on and you feel like you are totally in control of your experience. I prefer this type of amusement to the ones that you find most places where you are a passive passenger on a ride that does the same thing hour after hour and day after day.
One of the things that Billy most enjoyed was the crawl through hay maze. The maze is created by bales of hay that are stacked in such a way that once you enter the maze you are in complete darkness. The only time you get any light is about halfway through the maze where they created an opening that you can climb out of and get on top of the hay bales. Billy really enjoyed this part of the maze. I followed him through the maze once and he did it at least three more times by himself.
After we did all the different stations that the farm had available, Billy wanted to go see the animals and specifically to see the chicks. They have an area where they are constantly hatching new chicks and you can watch the entire process at the different stations they have available. Conveniently the final station is the lunch counter where they sell the freshest chicken sandwiches you will even encounter. Billy most enjoyed the station where you get to hold the chicks in your hand.
It was sad to leave the farm and I hope that he will want to go back again next year, but if not, I have many great memories of the times that I have taken him here in the past.
