When you have a good friend, you know what makes him tick, and why. CAMPFIRE IN THE BASEMENT contains all the “whats” and the “whys: that helped form author Darrell Pedersen and what makes him tick.
The ‘whats’ include lakes, woods and rivers, his family, his experiences, his loves, and his private tragedies. His “whys” are a list of motivations that drove this mischievous little dickens into becoming a sensitive human being, willing and able to share his “whats” and “whys” in words that elicit warmth, humor, and love. And, through it all, the silent work of God has woven his life.
Well done, good friend Darrell Pedersen!
