Gearing up the Maze

We got company on the porch! Actually it's a few of 50 scarecrow cowboys we're posting as greeters around the bison farm for our maze weekends. Our theme this year is the Wild West of Kansas, so we got a rough and ready posse to assist us. They will help draw attention to signs, pointing visitors to the various activities on the farm. They are cheap labor, but well worth their keep.

Last weekend we started moving pumpkins from one of the patches to make displays around the building and farm. Glad we have good strong help for all the work around here.

Our crew set up bale mazes, Spookley's Play Patch, the corn cannon, pumpkin sling shot, and finished the Haunted Trail.

We're into "countdown" with less than a week to be ready for the thousands of people that will visit our maze and pumpkin patch the next five weeks.

I still have a long list to do, but the season will happen no matter what, so we'll just jump in, do our best, and have fun!

If you're within the state, please come one of the next weekends to go through the maze, see the bison herd, enjoy our buffalo chili and fresh fruit pies, and pick a pumpkin to take home too.

We'll (including the scarecrow cowboy crew) will be ready for your visit!
