Gravel Roads

I love gravel roads! I love when we take off in the car for a drive and Joe decides to head down a gravel road. I really like taking off with Joe on the four wheeler on the gravel roads around our house. There’s just something about the unknown – not knowing what you are going to see over the next hill or around the next corner. Of course we live in southeast Iowa so there’s not much that’s going to surprise you – even when you don’t know the road. But I love seeing the old houses and old barns, the cows and pigs and the corn fields and the timbers. We were actually headed to Bettendorf while on this gravel road.  Joe left his billfold at the campground when we went home to get cleaned up  and rather than backtracking to the highway from the campground he took gravel. I was okay with that – I’d much rather travel a gravel road than drive along on the highway anyday!
