Laurel is utterly obsessed with Halloween this year, and she can’t get enough of the haunted hayrides over at Wilson Farms. These free rides run 5 days a week until October 31, and take visitors through the fields where (gently) spooky displays await. The ride is relatively (and appropriately) short, which allows time for visits to see the barnyard animals and the fish in the garden center. And this likely is part of the rationale for hosting such events, but I also love the convenience of being able to pick up groceries on the way out without having to make another stop.
