Straw Maze

We went to a straw maze in Rexburg at the beginning of the month. (Aren't you glad I'm sharing this adventure before it's old news?) We drove up for FHE and had some fun getting lost for a little while. I am of the opinion that straw mazes are much safer than corn mazes because the ground is a little more level. My sister had an unfortunate experience in a corn maze this week.

I think this maze was supposed to be spooky. We got there the 3rd day it was open and they may have been still gathering spooky props. There were spooky sounds being played on speakers and it looked like there were strobe lights for when it got dark. Other than that, this rubber hand sticking out of the straw was as scary as it got. I think Rebekah was glad.


Maybe she was still feeling a little creeped out and that's why she wouldn't pose with the other for this picture. Or maybe it's just because Rebekah doesn't like to be told what to do.



The maze had a lot of Dead Ends. We found every one of them.




Joseph enjoyed the maze from the back pack. Doesn't he look thrilled?


There were a lot of fun cracks to slip into, as long as you were smaller than the cracks. Unfortunately, I was not.






The only casualty was when the straw bales fell onto Daniel. OK. They didn't really, but he wanted you to think they did. (It's really just another crack!)


It was a fun FHE and a great way to start of the Fall season. We went home and had hot chocolate.
