Dear Liza,
We had some bright sunny Fall days this past week, so we got out to see what we could see.
We headed up to Sauvie Island, which celebrates Fall with corn, pumpkins, and all sorts of harvest goodies. This year, their corn maze (the Maize Maze) is all about the Peanuts comic strip, which Auntie Bridgett loves.
Here is the map of the maze. It was huge!
Of course, once we were inside the maze, we couldn’t see what it looked like. But we did see tall, beautiful corn stalks still growing. We smelled the sawdust mulch and heard the wind rustling through the leaves. It was a lovely walk out on a farm.
We made lots of wrong turns, and the whole maze took about 45 minutes to walk through. According to Auntie Bridgett’s Apple Watch, we walked almost two miles.
Being a “corny” maze, there were puns, such as this Cash Cow.
There were also lots of photo opportunities.
We really enjoyed our walk through the maze, but were happy to find shade and benches and snacks when we were done!
At the farm market, we got sodas and caramel corn, then drove through rush-hour traffic clear across town.
Another perfect adventure in Portland.
Love,
Grandma Judy
Dear Liza
