Brown's Berry Patch, Part I

The perfect fall morning dawned and we departed Rochester for the town of Waterport, New York. The drive was quite scenic, along Lake Ontario with fall leaves glittering in the sun. At moments like these, I can forgive New York for all of its snow.

We drove to Brown's Berry Patch, a pick-your-own fruit farm with a big barnyard playground for the kids. The outer playground is free, and they have a massive playground with a corn maze, pedal cars, silo slide, and a giant outdoor jumping "pillow" for a small admission fee. We'll definitely return to this place- it is amazingly fun!

Hey, where did Grandad go?

ACK! Don't eat the corn from the corn maze!

Honestly, this bouncing pillow was the most fun- ever!

How tall this fall? About 2 1/2 feet!

This one's nearing 3 1/2 feet.

Nolan loved riding the pony.

Grandma, getting ready to catch!
