No October would be complete without a visit to our local pumpkin farm. We go despite my irritation that the owner is a right-wing politician who has used questionable campaign tactics in the past. Not to mention the brochure mentions that all they do is for the glory of God. Really? Charging families $7 a head? And
extra for the corn cannon?? (I'm having deja vu...did I complain about this last year??!) That's getting steep for a family of four for about an hour's worth of fun.
Well, the kids don't care about that stuff, y'know. And I try to behave in a bi-partisan fashion. I'll keep my mouth shut about the complicating factors until they're older. Especially because there is this really cool gigantic jumpy pillow thingy this year!! And the pumpkin catapult is still cool. I mean, pumpkin trebuchet (thanks for enlightening me, P and P!).
Children of the corn. (I had to make that joke.)
The cool jumpy thing.

Ah right wing extremist jack 'o lanterns. A scary site indeed.
I have to say, though, I have never been to a cooler one. They seem to put the money back into it. Corn cannons do display God's glory particularly well.
