Corn Maze near Broken Arrow, Oklahoma

On the way to Nashville, we stopped to visit some Spearfish friends, who were helping their son with his Corn Maze near Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. It was really neat to see all of the things that they had created. They design the maze each year with a computer program, transfer it to a GPS, and one person walks in the corn field when it's young, and another foll0ws behind with a lawn mower. There were at least 250 kids there that night. We helped them out as much as we could, which was fun, but it also reminded us that it's more fun to watch kids in action when we're not in charge! The maze doesn't open until dark, and it's full of live spooks.



These are pictures of mazes from previous years.
They're hard to see, but just use your imagination! :)



This was pretty cool.
Those of you who lived in the "olden days", know how these pumps work.
The kids (and often parents) pump like mad,
and then put their ducks in the trough and see which one wins.




The Corn Box seemed to be fun for all ages...even college kids and parents!

When you go on the hayride, you're told that this guy didn't stay out of the way of the baler!
It's quite impressive to the kids.
