I guess this is where we introduce ourselves, and tell our story. Jan and I have been traveling for many years. We each traveled before we met, and we continue to do so now. Though these adventures are not one continuous trip, we each have managed to see many places. Our last long trip lasted for 1 1/2 years, as we did a slow circle around the country with 2 teenagers. We traveled, and we home schooled. It was a very interesting time for all. In the end we finally returned home to Maine, where we built our log home, and became foster parents, for the second time. We met many great kids, and enjoyed, for the most part, their visit with us. And to be honest, they are missed.. Especially one.Jan's background began in Connecticut and proceeded to New York city, where she was employed in the banking industry. Leaving the Big Apple, Jan moved to Maine. There Jan built a tax prep and consultation business that lasted 14 years. It was during this period where she and I met.As for myself, I have worked one form or other in construction. I plowed roads during the winter, constructed new homes, and renovated old homes to sell. I have also worked in the commercial end of construction as a laborer, truck driver, and heavy equipment operator. My jobs included construction of roads and bridges, erecting towers, and site preparation for new development.Much water has passed under the bridge these past years, and as we grow older, that stream of water seems to be picking up speed. Now is the time that we decided to slow down a little bit, and enjoy what life throws our way.......
