What did we do over the 4th of July at The Pumpkin Ranch? We watched the corn maze being cut. For me, this just meant looking out the kitchen window periodically. But, this guy, he got to watch from 160 feet in the air. Our corn maze sponsor had the great idea to attempt a time lapse video of the maze being cut. They found a photographer who was willing to be lifted 160 feet in the air and stay there the entire time the maze was being cut…8 hours. And, did I mention the actual temperature at The Ranch on the 4th? 100 degrees. If you look closely in the corn, you can see the tractor used to cut the maze.
