gridlore | The corn maze.. four went in expecting only a good morning's fun...

... and four came out, completely satisfied with the entire thing.

OK, not a good set up for a horror film, but an accurate description of our trip to Ardenwood's corn maze. Kirsten and I met up with

kevin_standlee and his ever-stunning wife Lisa a little after 1000, and had a great time exploring the maze. Numerous RPG references were made, along with other SF and popular culture jokes.

After the maze, we decided to take a ride on the park's horse-drawn train. Hanging out with two train geeks for this portion was fun. Learned a lot from listening to their stories. Jigs the Horse did an admirable job of pulling all us kids around the park. Then we just wandered around. Met some animals (Kiri petted a pig, and I apologized to some chickens for having a relative for lunch) and just admired the place.

After a couple of hours, Kiri and I were both starting to wear down, so we said our goodbyes and headed towards home (with a detour to Home Depot so I could pick up some new gloves and check out socket sets.)

Now all I have on my schedule is some laundry, watching The Rookie, and maybe firming up a few details on the Blimps.

Lisa and I had a good time, too, and thank you for suggesting it. We hung around for about another 90 minutes or so, including taking the long loop walk clear around the far side of the property. I needed the walk, but I've also developed a blister on my left little toe.

As you didn't mention, Lisa and I were in our WSFS uniforms (http://www.boston-baden.com/hazel/Pix/p.cgi?2005+3478-5+cas273.jpg); me in the captain's gear, and Lisa as my aide. She certainly is good for my morale. :)
