Fall is arriving and we decided to head out to explore the area again.  My wife loves decorating for holidays and Halloween is right up near the top of her list.

Here are some of the things available at the Corn Maze:

  • Hay rides and games (corn hole, checkers, etc.),
  • Wooden monster truck, tractor and pirate ship to climb on/in,
  • Corn and hay barn for kids to play in, and
  • Six-acre corn maze with 2.5 miles of paths

They’re open September 22 to November 11 and have a haunted corn maze from October 20th, 21st, 27th, 28th and 30th and 31st.

They’re located at 3175 Benson Road, (Hwy. 50 South) in Garner, NC and you can find more information as well as directions on their web site: http://www.kenskornycornmaze.com/directions/

Hiking at Harris Lake

Exploring Harris Lake

/in /by

There’s a county park a few miles from our home called Harris Lake.  It’s actually home of the Shearon Harris Nuclear Plant, which is run by Duke Energy. We decided to go for a hike, even if just to get out of the house for a bit.  The 680-acre park is situated on a peninsula near the Shearon Harris Reservoir in New Hill, N.C. – and is convenient to Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Holly Springs and Fuquay-Varina. In addition to hiking trails, there’s a lake for fishing and skiing (or just boating), bike trails (such as the Hog Run Mountain Bike Trail) and a disc golf course.
