Last night (Thursday) after school I was planning to hang out with God and then head to the ISU Apostolic Christian Young Group that I've been going to (and I really enjoy). However God had a different plan for me. While I was hanging out with Him, He took me on a drive, which isn't unusual. But He kept taking me further and further away from Bloomington Normal. Well I ended up in Tremont for a few hours, while He was continuing to take me on several different journeys that He has been taking me on. I was thankful and had a great time. Though I was sad a bit to miss the young group and the singing afterwards. After several hours in Tremont I then headed to Princeville to spend the night with my Grandma Baurer. I hadn't pre-arranged this (except right before I left Tremont I texted her and asked her if I could come for the night, and she replied with a yes), but God knew what was going on and going to happen. I really enjoyed my time with Him and with Grandma!
Oh, also one my way to Grandma's I stopped in Peoria at my History Teacher's recommendation to see Nina and Pinta, replicas of Columbus' ships when he sailed to America. Just as my History teacher said, it was quite surprising how small they were.
To see the comparison of size, if you look on the dock on the far left of the picture below, you can see a faint outline of a person. Looking at the size of the ships to that person, and knowing that each ship had at least a crew of 18 men when they sailed from Europe to America back in 1492, it is just amazing.
