Summer Pictures III- Grant's Farm

My birthday (36!) happened to be just a few days after we moved in. We decided it was a necessity to put the unpacking on pause and experience our first forage into local culture: Grant's Farm. Ulysses S. Grant, that is. The outing was a short one, with highs and humidity rivaling any August day in Texas, but worth it!

Here's Grant's actual cabin:












Ellie wasn't so sure what she thought of these critters-- they were not meek and mild.













They were downright aggressive!













I know you can't tell by this picture, but this guy was on the move-- clocking speeds up to 1mph!












Grant's Farm is owned by the Anheuser-Busch company, thus the parrot's loyal pose.












K & E recommend the "fun pass" when you go: 2 milk bottles to feed the goats, 1 carousel ride, and a free drink, for $5. A bargain! Great family fun day.
