When the kids were growing up, I used to say they were growing like sunflowers.
When everyone else would comment on how fast the kids were growing up, that they were growing like weeds, I would always say no, they are growing like sunflowers. They grow just as fast but grow stronger and taller, and make people smile when they look at them. Can you tell I like sunflowers?
Today’s travels has us back down in Wolfville checking in on Rebekah before we head back to Ottawa. (Winnie has another RV appointment in Niagara.) Our stay tonight had us at a Harvest Host stop at the Hennigar’s Farm Market. Now this place is amazing. We were up in the apple orchard, with views over the bay. Beside the orchards there was a huge acre of sunflowers, which were in full bloom. Well I was in heaven and I think I took over 50 pictures.
Before the sun set, we decided to jump on our bikes and find the Harvest Moon Trail and biked into Grand Pré National Historic Site. After a little of exploring around the park we decided to ride the dykes. The Grand Pré Dyke – 3013 acres below Sea Level, behind 28455 feet of dyke. This is such a cool phenomenon. As we grabbed a picture of the sun starting to come down over the high tide filled basin, we headed back to Hennigar’s to pick up some fabulous fresh fruit and veggies and a jug of there amazing fresh apple cider. We highly recommend stopping at Hennigar’s if you are ever in Wolfville.
