Joan and her husband Lee live on Route 66 in the beautiful Missouri Ozarks. They have two married daughters and six grandchildren whose ages range from 4 to 14 so life can become delightfully hectic at times. After spending over half her life on the West Coast, Joan loves being a Midwest transplant where she enjoys gardens and country living. Bible study and writing are at the top of her love-to-do list along with reading anything anytime anywhere but especially when curled up by a crackling fire on a snowy winter day. Her love of history has led her to compile her families' histories, one of her lines going back to 1482 in Norway and her husband's to an ancestor who was with George Washington's troops at Valley Forge. She's currently recording her own family's story and loves seeing how God has been at work blessing their lives.
