We spent Saturday morning at a local farm just outside of Old town. You could feed the goats and sheep, see hens lay eggs, and gobble at turkeys and hear them gobble back.
It was a nice mix of animals that you could interact with, equipment to play on, and museum-like rooms to explore at your leisure.
For $5 the kids could ride horses for 15 minutes. It was so laid back; the parents led the horses around a track. I couldn't get Alex's horse Dottie to keep moving. Every time she say a leaf or a piece of grass she stopped to graze. She would even push me out of the way just to get to some food.
Lilia's horse, Buzz would see Dottie at the fence eating and as soon as he rounded the corner he would trot for the fence pulling Dave behind him. Dave would have to quick catch up, then pull him away to get moving again. It was a little nutty, but the kids loved it.
