Description
Newly retired couple with “servant hearts”
We both grew up in rural areas of Texas - Shane on a cotton farm on the high plains and Ann on a peanut farm and ranch in central Texas. We are both adventurous and have excellent work ethics. Our goals for early retirement include traveling the world, meeting people, and offering service where we can to help others achieve their goals.
