Thought it might be fun during this month off from reading together to get to know each other a bit better. I'll be posting a few question threads. Feel free to pop in and chat with others in the group. See who you might have something in common with and maybe make a new friend!

I'm from Central NY, but currently live in Richmond, VA - USA
