A leisurely Sunday drive just hearkens back to yesteryear. Some Sundays we’d just hop in the car, roll down the windows, and let our final destination be a surprise. Maybe it was a roadside farm stand, an adorable restaurant, or an ice cream shop. Sometimes, though, we hit the road with a picture-perfect destination in mind. Like Festival Farm in Rhode Island.
