Fall is Finally Here

Fall arrived with slightly cooler weather, but no rain.  However, as usual, we have gone maze crazy in Texas. You must visit one of the popular mazes this fall.  Grab the youngsters and the teens because they are going to have a blast.  So, how about some fall family fun?

Dewberry Farm

One of my favorites is just outside Katy, Texas. The Dewberry Farm: Corn Maze and Family Farm Fun!  Four-acres of corn maze, sixteen-acre Pumpkin Patch, not to mention more children activities added each year!
