Joann and Jack

"The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off." ~Abe Lemons **We are a school librarian and a federal accountant enjoying retirement--with all its days off. This blog allows us to keep our family and friends updated on some of our thoughts and activities from the mundane to the profound with a few interesting tidbits added for fun. We try to stay imaginative and adventuresome in our every day lives.
