When used in a sentence, "and" usually indicates the connection or addition of elements of the same class or type.
Nouns and verbs may be connected with "and." Normally, though, we keep classes of elements separate. That's number one in the rule book.
John and Mary went to school.
Running and singing, John and Mary went to school.
In the morning and in the evening, John
