Corn Maze, Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, Littleton

This weekend I met my pops and everyone for an afternoon down at the Denver Botanic Gardens Corn Maze. I’ve been wanting to do one of these for a few years now but never made the time or was derailed from my mission by other means (particularly lack of planning). At first the maze seemed as if it was going to be pretty easy. However, it ended up being a lot more difficult than I planned. And it seemed that about 3/4ths of the way through it there was some deesention among the ranks and we were all going to give up. Pops stepped up to the plate and led us out.

Stats (provided by pedometer)
Time spent in maze: 91 minutes
Steps taken in maze: 4,072
Miles walked: 1.6
Frustration level: 7.3 (impacted by hunger, hangover, and bad jokes)

    I had no idea that so much corn was grown in Colorado. I always thought of it as a rocky, mountainous state.

    Funnel cakes are awesome…

    I’ve never heard of such a thing–and I live in the cornhusker state!

    I’ll have to check around and see if we have anything like that here.

    try spending that length of time in one of those when you really have to pee! no good. i went to one in boise, and the coolest part was they had really scary people jump out at you. cool, but also not a good mix with the having-to-pee thing.
