Reading

Brier and Lore McClure are retired. They don’t work anymore. They don’t want to rest; they want to explore the world. They want to be sure they see more, so they speak about the future while they walk on the shore.

Happy Retirement

Brier wants to visit the Maasai people in Kenya. The traditional dances lure him. He can watch the tall men jump over the fire. Lore isn’t sure because she thinks the plains will be a bore.

Happy Retirement

Lore would rather rent an RV and tour the National Parks in America. They can enjoy the pure air in the forest, or if they want drier weather, camp under the big azure sky in the desert.

Happy Retirement

Brier wants a big adventure, so maybe Brazil. They can catch the score at a football game and tour pure nature on the Amazon river. Lore loves to shop and can visit the stores in Rio. They won’t want more than Brazil on their tour!

Happy Retirement

The McClure’s figure out their retirement plan. They are not tired or down to the wire. They will visit the Maasai, the National Parks and Brazil. But first, the best cure: to relax by the shore.

Happy Retirement
