Two in Thailand

After raising three children and watching them graduate from college, Bob and Carol decided to leave the educational field and pursue a dream that had been put on hold for 35 years (since graduationg from the University of Northern Iowa).

The opinions expressed within do not necessarily represent the views of the Peace Corps or the United States Government.
