Wolfville - Taking a Rest Stop

 On the other side of Wolfville, Nova Scotia, we stopped at Hennigar's Farmer's Market and petting zoo.
The market had an excellent selection with great prices. But that's only part of the joy of the place.
The joy is the experience of seeing something you didn't expect, all from going off the highway to the unexplored path.
Rest stops don't have that bit of magic that small communities have. The fact you can pick up local fruit, vegetables, treats, knicknacks and cute animals too...well...it makes it longer but you enrich your life that much more.
Plus I got an idea for a scenery piece from this covered bridge going over a brook.

So take an adventure, turn off the highway and experience something new when you want a rest. You'll thank yourself.
