Last week we took a quick trip to Knott's to check out their preparations for Summer. 

The park is kicking off a whole bunch of summer excitement this Saturday and we'll of course be there to check it all out this weekend. But in the meantime, here's some of the preparation that was going on last week. 
Pictures and Words by Gregg Condon
It was a beautiful day at the farm, but was full of Middle School groups, not my thing so it was probably my quickest visit to the park ever, less than an hour.
