I took a drive through an animal farm
I took a little trip to the Lazy 5 Ranch, which is in Mooresville, North Carolina. The ranch is located in almost the middle of no where, which is good, because it keeps their costs down.
On May 22, 1993 after several years of planning and hard work, Henry Hampton's dream became a reality. With a mere staff of five, two buildings and only two operating wagons, the Lazy 5 Ranch was officially open.
The name of the park was debated for only a short amount of time before Henry's son came up with the obvious name, Lazy 5 Ranch. At the time, the Hampton family consisted of five so-called "lazy" people.
The wagons weren't in service for the day, so it was a drive through experience. After an initial issue with some long-horned cattle blocking traffic, a ranch worker came down and cleared them out, the rest of the trip was just a matter of going slowly. You can feed all the animals, except the zebra and the long-horned cattle. But, it is a messy affair, especially if a buffalo sticks its head through your window to eat out of the bucket. It is best to take the risk and hold your hand in the air and drop the food down into the mouth of the bovines. The ranch probably has too many pot-bellied pigs, but they are really cute.
Here are some of the pictures I took.
Let the positive energy sing!
