Avid reader and loves to travel.
I have had a love for reading since I was old enough to read on my own. I love to read and love exchanging books with friends that are readers as well. I feel my love for reading help me to be the best teacher in instilling my students with a love to read as well.
My husband worked for American Airlines for 38 out of 39 years of marriage. We have traveled a lot over the years with our boys and at time just the two of us. We bought a RV 6 years ago and now we are traveling the US and loving it. We used to go from point A to point Z to get to our destination. Now, we go through point A-Z and are loving seeing what is inbetween.
