Corn Maze in Zellwood, Florida

It was a fine Saturday afternoon on Long & Scott Farms in Zellwood, Florida.

I was pleased to discover I was almost as tall as the cartoon orange.

I pointed out a few pumpkins for my camera.

Julie was please to see the farm was open because we can't just waste all our time in the market place.

I, however, enjoyed wasting all the time I possibly could when given the chance.

Theresa thought wasting time looked like a lot of fun to, so she kept talking about how this corn maze survival pack was essential to own.

I pretended like I was cool.

Then I played hide and seek by myself and it was the best three hours ever.

After the intense round of hide and seek everyone was eager to go into the corn maze, but if you want to enter you must venture into the black plastic tube of doom through a 60 foot pile of sand.






Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

We all waited in line patiently to meet our doom.






Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I was quick to point out the "doom tube."

Thankfully, we all made it to the other side and were ready to start the adventure!

My finger was also quick for spotting the corn!







Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

But my head spotted something else though.....





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

.....JUMBO HOT DOG!!! We were BFF until I ate it in like one minute.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

"ENOUGH OF THIS DILLY DALLYING," exclaimed Theresa. "LET US GET LOST IN THE VAST FIELD OF FLORIDA CORN!!!"





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

We all took our one last look at civilization before heading into the maze.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Then we were all scared and ran away from the maze.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

But after an hour or so everyone was brave enough to go through...except I still had second thoughts.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Single file through the maize!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I found a Dr. Suess wanna-be corn.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

We were totally BFF.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

But like with all of my BFF's I ate the Dr. Suess wanna-be corn, which I totally shouldn't have done because it was totally not delicious.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

The best part of the late-BFF Dr. Suess wanna-be corn was the side effect I had afterwards of the maize spinning around me.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I eventually recovered and totally wanted to find another BFF.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

We found an "X" on the ground and could only assume that there were pirates burying their treasure throughout the corn maze.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

"Pirates? That can't be right," I exclaimed, "it can only be aliens because they love corn fields." Jeremy didn't know how to respond to my statement.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

But there was a rustling sound in the corn stalks near by.....





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

.....I didn't know what it was, but I kept my eyes wide open.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

My extra terrestrial senses were tingling, but there didn't seem to be anything in sight.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

But we all continued to focus on finding our way out of the maze.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Which was also the plan for anyone or ANYTHING in the corn fields.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This was definitely not a pirate marking!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I nearly cried like a little boy after seeing that.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

BRIDGE!!!!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Julie took advantage of the strong signal she got on her cell phone and chatted with her mom in the middle of the corn field.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Six days later we found the exit.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Theresa was somewhat excited.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

We all started to walk back to the market place.....





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

.....then Theresa found another maze that was much easier to find your way out of AND you get sprayed with a misty water-like substance.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Most people were in the mood for some mist so they followed along.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

THEN WE GOT LOST IN SOME CORN AGAIN!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I wasn't exactly sure how this happened.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

ANOTHER BRIDGE!!!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

OMG!!! I love bridges in corn fields.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I always look this cool on a bridge overlooking corn.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Julie also wanted to look cool!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

After spending quite a bit of time in a corn maze I expressed my thoughts and feelings aloud for Julie to hear and I am certain she found it to be most fascinating.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

After getting out of another corn maze our reward were teeter totters!





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This made the maze of maize worth going through after all.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

The rest of the group waited patiently until we were either done with the playground equipment, which meant playing on it until it breaks.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I can't help myself but to show off in an empty cement tube.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Theresa tried but if she practices she'll eventually get it right.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Here is what Julie and I look like when we are holding pumpkins.





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Here is Theresa's best impersonation of Gonzo from The Muppets.

And finally, here is our group shot of everyone after a fun filled day of hanging out in a field full of corn.





THE END!!!
