Baldwin Farm / Richmond KY
Yesterday was the kind of day that you wish could be poured in a mason jar like mid-summer honey to savor all winter when you want to bring back good memories.
I loaded Mom in the car and went out to take some pictures of fall foliage and landscapes while the weather stays nice in the 70's.
One place I'd never been but driven past thousands of times was the Baldwin Farm.
Nice farm with lots of shade trees....
Many kids and large spiders!
The gravel road to the top of the hill.
We passed by a farm casualty from the haying season. O well...
Finally, at the top of the hill and where all the action is.
I'm hungry, lets ring the dinner bell!
Forget food! I can't resist colorful eye candy! Love these mums.
These two chickens need names and this kid is pondering...
Which one will she vote for?
To cast a vote, you put a corn cob in the basket of your favorite names.
Politics the old fashioned way.
This hay maze made me dizzy! Ohh...it may be I just feel normal!
At first I thought the dog was a statue.
Turns out he had something cornered in the corn stack.
He wasn't movin till it came out!
How about some refreshments?
Kick your feet up and relax for a spell.
Don't forget to pay for the cider!
A GAZILLION pumpkins scattered all over the hills to pick from.
I thought this was hysterical! Askem and See!
More stuff to shop for.
People have red wagons full of goodies to buy.
Mom found a funny shaped gourd! Isn't she cute?
Everyone is lined up at the check out.
Just like Walmart there are last minute items to the left of the checkout to add more on the total purchase. Good thinking!
Mom and I headed out to the country to take more pictures.
I couldn't resist taking another shot of those mums!

What a wonderful tour! Thanks for sharing all the wonderful pictures and no wonder you thought the dog was a statue....did he stay in one place like that? He must have for you to snap the picture lol!
Sally - When I first saw this hound dog he was as still as a statue. I almost went over and touched him. I decided to take a picture instead. A few other people were getting a good laugh out of it too.
Well Lizette its looks like you and mom had a great time there at the farm. Nice pictures and thanks for sharing.

Awesome eye candy! More please! I love your photographs. Looks like you and your Mom had a great time hanging out. Very cool. :-)
Outstanding Photos... Love the hay casualty and are you sure that dog was real? Looks like a really good time.
Glad you had a beautiful fall day! Your photos always make me feel like I was along for the fun. We had an awesome Saturday in TN with great weather too. Just too bad the Vols didn't fare as well down in Georgia. Maybe next year!
Roy - Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Carolyn - Mom's always fun to hang out with. She was over here todayhanging out on my deck and later keeping an eye on my handyman while he tried to work.
Debbie - I'm pretty sure the dog was real...not too sure about the hay casualty though.
Connie - You would have liked this farm. It did remind me of being in TN.
It looks like fun. I love the pictures. Autumn is such a wonderful time of year.
What a fun way to spend the day.. wish I could have been there. Love the corn cob voting system.

Hi Lizette,
The Baldwin Farm looks like a fun place to spend the afternoon. Thanks for the great pictures! I am so jealous that you still have temps in the 70's.....that is wishful thinking here!!
Lizette, sounds like you and your mom had a wonderful time at Baldwin Farm. Enjoyed the photos, thanks for sharing.
I loved this post! Your pictures really captured the wonderful time you had at Baldwin Farms.
Looks like a place I'd like to visit! There's nothing like country living.
Gotta love that dinner bell!!!!!!!!!
Liz,
