A TRIP TO THE LARGEST CORN MAZE IN THE STATE!
WE READ AN ADD IN THE NEWSPAPER FOR ONE OF THE LONGEST CORN MAZES IN THE STATE, PLUS IT BOAST A BEAUTIFUL HAY RIDE, A REALLY LARGE PUMPKIN PATCH, FACE PAINTING, PUMPKIN CARVING, AND MORE.. THE GREAT GRANDKIDS WILL LOVE IT WE THOUGHT! AND LAST WEEKEND WAS THE LAST WEEKEND TO ATTEND.. SO WE ASK AND THEIR PARENTS TOLD US THAT IF WE WOULD GO THEY WOULD GO AND TAKE THE KIDS AND WE COULD MAKE A FAMILY DAY OF IT! IT WAS
SUCH A LONG RIDE THAT WE DECIDED TO PACK A PICNIC LUNCH, AND JUST REALLY MAKE A DAY OF IT! OUR GROWN GRANDKIDS STOPPED WHEN WE WERE NEARLY THERE FOR A "PIT" STOP AND TO GO AHEAD AND EAT.. THAT WAY ONCE WE GOT THERE THE KIDS WOULD BE MORE INTERESTED IN THE PARK RATHER THAN FINDING SOMETHING TO EAT... WE ATE, MADE TRIPS TO THE RESTROOM AND THE KIDS WERE GETTING RESTLESS.. SO, WE TOLD THEIR 
PARENTS TO TAKE THEM AND GO AHEAD, WE WOULD GATHER EVERYTHING AND CLEAN UP A LITTLE AND BE RIGHT THERE WITH THEM. BUT, AFTER A WRONG TURN AND HAVING TO BACK TRACK, WE ARRIVED LATER THAN WE HOPED FOR OR EXPECTED TO. SO, BY THE TIME WE GOT THERE THE REST HAD ALREADY WENT THROUGH THE CORN MAZE AND WAS OFF FOR THE HAY RIDE. BUT FIRST THEY INSISTED THAT GRANDDAD AND I AGREE TO GO THROUGH THE CORN MAZE. "COME ON GRANDMA AND GRANDDAD, YOU CAN DO IT! IT WAS JUST SOOOO FUN! PLEASSSSSE, THEY BEGGED" AND OFF THEY WENT. AGAINST OUR BETTER JUDGEMENT, WE RELUCTANTLY WALKED

TOWARDS THE MAZE. THE WORKER SAID, "YOU'LL BE FINE, THIS TIME OF THE EVENING, WE POST 4 GUIDES ALONG THE WAY TO KEEP IT SAFE AND FUN, AND YOU'VE BOTH BROUGHT SWEATERS, ENJOY" I'VE GOT TO ADMIT THAT I APPRECIATED HEARING THAT. IT HAD JUST BEEN SO MANY YEARS SINCE WE'VE EVEN THOUGHT OF A MAZE, LET ALONG MASTERING ONE FROM START TO FINISH. ANYWAY, WE GOT STARTED AND WALKED THIS WAY AND THAT, TWISTING AND TURNING AND WALKING UPON MANY DEAD END PATHWAYS. BOY THIS IS A TRUE MAZE HE SAID. FINALLY GUIDE #1. SHE TOLD US THAT WE NEEDED TO TRY TO SPEED UP A LITTLE BECAUSE IT WAS A RATHER LONG MAZE. WOW, AGAIN THIS WAY AND 
THAT, IT'S REALLY COOLING OFF AND GETTING DARKER! OH MY, THE SECOND GUIDE... HE SAID "IF YOU'LL TURN TWICE TO THE LEFT AND THEN TO THE RIGHT AND LEFT AGAIN IT WILL GET YOU CLOSER" AND HE WINKED, TRYING TO HELP US GET TO THE OTHER END. THANKFULLY IT TOOK US TO THE NEXT GUIDE. "FOLKS, PLEASE TRY TO HURRY ALONG, TAKE THREE RIGHTS AND ONE LEFT." I TOLD MY HUSBAND, I KNOW IT'S KIND OF CHEATING, BUT I AM GRATEFUL FOR THE HELP, I'M COLD AND ITS REALLY GETTING DARK!" WE FINALLY CAME
UPON THE LAST GUIDE AND IT'S GETTING SOOO DARK NOW. HE SAID, "DON'T WORRY FOLKS, YOU ARE RATHER CLOSE NOW, AND YOUR FAMILY IS WAITING FOR YOU AT THEIR CAR, SO PLEASE HURRY ALONG, GOD SPEED"... THIS WAY AND THAT, THIS WAY AND THAT AND WE ARE BARELY ABLE TO SEE NOW AND FEELING THE SIDES OF THE CORN ALONG THE WAY SO NOT TO STUMBLE. FINALLY GRANDDAD SAID, "COME ON DEAR, I THINK WE'VE REACHED THE END, HE PLACED HIS ARM AROUND MY BACK AND GUIDED ME RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM." "THANK GOODNESS" I SAID, BUT JUST AS WE WALKED OUT INTO THE DARKNESS, I LOOKED OUTWARD, FROZE AND SCREAMED!
