Just when you think they run out of ideas, the Suter corn maze opens with something so complex you wonder if you could ever escape.
The corn maze and Morning Star Cider Press are located at 8250 Road R, Pandora.
Suter's 2016 corn maze theme is "Twists and Turns in Transportation." That means there's a:
• Steam locomotive
• Ocean liner
• Race car
• Semi-truck
• Helicopter
• Jet
• and, yes that's blimp in the top left-hand corner.
Saturday's rain reached 1.93 inches in Pandora, according to Guy Verhoff, Pandora weather observer. Until Wednesday, it was the only rain measured in September.
