Very nice small airport

Would have liked to spend some time here. Maybe go to the Blue Bunny tour. I did see a vehicle with airport labeling so could have been a courtesy car. We had to make an unplanned stop here as I had a Sick passenger and she needed to get out for a bit before continuing on. So, we fueled up and waited until she was ready to go.
