Yesterday – Saturday – we went with the cousins to the Hillcrest Christmas Tree Farm. The owners have been working on the “Hillcrest and Wahtoke Railroad” over the years, adding a car or two and some track each season. Yesterday was the first day of operation this year.

Daniel, Dad, Ben, and me – courtesy coffee and donuts (courtesy of Dad) while we waited for the train.

Paul and Aunt Lisa – Hillcrest offers a pumpkin patch with hayrides and a corn maze during the autumn months. A few pumpkins were left over and the staff let Paul take his pick!

Another farm feature – the swinging bridge – was enjoyed to its utmost.

Ummmmm . . . I think Ben is ready to be let out of the dungeon now!
