Drive in the Country

November 17, 2014  •  1 Comment

Some might think this odd, because you are either too young or already live in the country. But when I was a kid, my dad would announce that we all were going for a drive in the country. I loved it. It was a a chance to see something new, to go somewhere we hadn't been. And we would just roam the country roads. At least, it seemed that way to a kid.

I spent a lot of miles driving during my ministry, especially during the five years I was a superintendent. Again, it was new territory for me, and I have always enjoyed driving. This photo is on the road along the Mississippi River, just south of Nauvoo, among the prettiest places in Illinois.

Hey, John, that sounds like my childhood. On Saturday afternoons, when Dad had finished his sermon, we would all jump in the car and drive out in the country along the Platte River which was just south of town. Those are some wonderful memories. That most likely had a great deal to do with why I enjoy photography! God's artwork is amazing. :)
