The Great Pumpkin Adventure 2009

It's October, and a sunny day in the midst of a lot of rain, so, the only thing to do is to go to a pumpkin patch, get a little muddy, and pick a pumpkin, or seven. We found a great, new (to us) pumpkin patch in North Plains. It's called Lakeside Farms, and is, surprisingly enough, located next to a large pond they call a lake. It was a lot of fun.


You could walk to the patch, but, as they have a lake, there is a better way to travel:
There were two lake monsters and a shark that came out of the water next to the boat, and a little stand with pirates and a cannon.


On the way back, we took the train, which was also very fun.


There was a great bunch of old farm equipment that was probably full of germs, but the photo op was too great to pass up. So, here's Alayna on a tractor...
... and an old wagon.

There were even pony rides. Alayna's pony was named Raven. He was a very nice pudgy pony.


Alayna getting a wheel-barrow ride on some of the pumpkins.


Once Jen and Roger added their pumpkins to the wheelbarrow, we had a good pile. It was a great pumpkin day.
