Pumptastic, Cornmazin’, Hayrific…

I must say, the Saturday we spent at the Queens County Farm Corn Maze (“Maize Maze,” if you will), pumpkin “patch,” hay-ride, and feeding zoo, was one of my best days in the nearly eight months that I’ve been living in New York.

The farm is in the Great Neck area of Queens.

All of this, in the middle of a Queens suburb!

Once inside the Maze, it took us almost an hour-and-a-half to get out!

I bought one of these heirloom tomatoes.

I carved the best little pumpkin.
