Sunday at Spooner Farms

Kaeli and MaMa spent Sunday at Spooner Farm in Orting, which has a large pumpkin patch and an even LARGER corn maze. This year's theme was The Chronicles of Narnia. We met quite a few friends there from the Tacoma Families with Children from Asia (TacFCA) group that we are members of.


An overhead photo of the corn maze, with the outline of Aslan and Prince Caspian drawn by the paths. The red area to the right of the maze is the "pumpkin patch" with the hay bale spiders. They also had barns with animals to see, activities, roasted corn and corn dogs and fudge, and other fun things to do.



After going through a "wardrobe" at the entrance to the maze, you enter a winter wonderland of corn.


One of the interesting places in the maze. Notice Kaeli is already "strolling leisurely" on her way to the next area to explore. We spent almost an hour in the maze and only found two of the six mailboxes. Kaeli was getting concerned and wanted "out", so MaMa took the group in hand (Olivia and her parents Bruce and Pam, and Lia and Maya and their mother, Nancy) after we found a bridge and got our bearings, and got us out of the maze pretty quickly. It was a wonderful, well-done maze, that measured 2.1 miles in total path length!
