Bates Nut Farm

Halloween on the west coast is seriously not the same. It's like nobody cares about the Fall. That may be due to the fact that seasons rarely exist down here in Southern Cali. Or maybe people just actually don't care. Either way, it's kinda lame. That is why Maddox and I are flying back to Connecticut for the holiday with my mom and Mattie and Danielle. It's gonna be awesome! But, to pass the time and give ourselves a little Halloween cheer we went to Bates Nut Farm and walked around. Bates Nut Farm is, what else, a nut farm, but it also has a huge pumpkin patch, lots of goats and chickens and llams, and a cute country store. Of course it was a million degrees and sunny and definitely not autumn-like. But it was still nice to see pumpkins and little kids dressed up and take pictures of the kiddies at the pumpkin patch. Here are a few snapshots from our Southern Californian attempt at Halloween festivities.
