| What a Wonderful World! Warner Farms magical cornfield is graced with Louis Armstrong! Pops! Satchmo! After 8 acres of goofy fun you will know what Louis meant by When You're Smiling, the Whole World Smiles With You. As Mike says, "Forget the forecasts!" This year, Mikesmaze will be On the Sunny Side of the Street. | |||||||||||||||
| Here is Louis as he appeared in early August. | |||||||||||||||

| Louis' remarkable life and his contribution to the Arts is described in detail at the National Portrait Gallery website. That site opens with the following quote by Dizzy Gillespie: "Louis Armstrong's station in the history of jazz is umimpeachable. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't be any of us." That page concludes with Armstrong quote about his guiding philosophy in his introduction to his fabulous rendition of It's a Worlderful World, "And all I'm saying is, see what a wonderful world it would be if only we would give it a chance. Love, baby, love. That's the secret. Yeah."
As part of this year's maze visitors will play songs on our unique musical fences. Only a few of Louis's standards could be transcribed to our fences so our maze game will be a broader tribute to music of many types in our predictably offbeat way. We promise you and your family a world of smiles at this year's maze. Satchmo at Mikesmaze, music from our ears to yours! |
