I work from home and Jim is a chemist. We love to travel on weekend trips. Florida has so much to offer. I am an avid reader and Jim is a film buff with a extensive dvd collection. We view the world as not simply black and white but a broad spectrum of shades in between, so we enjoy talking to different people and learning about different cultures.
