Everyone tells me ‘Go out for a drive’ and my thought is ‘To where?’ Maybe it’s a factor of the green/eco-friendly/save-the-damn-earth/communist/socialist agenda of which I partake. Maybe it’s because I’m new at this. But I don’t get the whole concept of going nowhere. Now, I do go for bike rides and hikes, and people might argue that those are trips to nowhere, except those are trips to get out, enjoy nature, and get exercise. So they have a point, a purpose, and a meaning. Good for me and the world, you see. Driving just to drive seems silly, wasteful and weird. So with that in mind, I drove down to UIC campus to check out an SCA fighter practice.
Just photos this week. Thinking things later.
There are some people that just like to drive and see the countryside. My mom was like that. Me, I like driving to get somewhere to do someting, but I do try to enjoy the scenery as it goes by. Granted, I do enjoy it far more as a passenger.
