Lazy 5 Ranch
We just got back from the Lazy 5 Ranch in Mooresville, NC. It was a perfect fall day. There was actually a nip in the air and we had to wear jackets. We bought tickets for the wagon ride (def. worth the extra $5!!!) and spent the time waiting walking through the petting zoo grounds, and playground. We had a great time. The animals come right up to you and take the food from your hands. They have a huge variety of animals, you see chickens and camels, goats, parrots, prairie dogs, and lemurs! The atmosphere is very laid back. It is not like a zoo where you see the animals from a distance. The wagon ride was amazing. We actually got to touch a zebra and a giraffe! The water buffalo came right up and opened it's mouth waiting for you to pour the food in. The staff was super friendly. Our wagon driver kept us entertained the entire time. Nothing was rushed. After the wagon ride we watched a blacksmith shoe a horse. All of us enjoyed the place immensely! I can not WAIT to go back.
To top off a near perfect day we stopped at beautiful Carrigan farms and J picked out a 24lb pumpkin! There was a lot more to do there, including a corn maze, but it was getting very late.
And to make my day absolutely perfect the Red Sox just won game 6!!!!!!!
