We are in an 8 year monogamous relationship. Mark is in healthcare, working for South Carolina's Organ Procurement Organization. Robert is a project manager; having worked in the commercial construction industry.

Our hobbies include collecting and restoring Depression-era furniture and collecting antique art pottery (i.e.: Roseville, Hull, Purinton, Weller and McCoy), "antiqueing", and completing restoration of our Arts & Crafts-era (Ca 1905) bungalow; which was featured on HGTV's (Home & Garden Television) show "If Walls Could Talk". Our home has been featured in The State newspaper and the Historic Elmwood Park Tour of Homes. Our home is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Mark collects vintage Christmas decorations and has an extensive collection of vintage bubble lights, Glo-Lite stars, Glo-Lite candy canes, animated musical scenes, and many other vintage Christmas lights. Mark also makes stained glass for a hobby.

Robert's favorite hobby is woodworking and he has recently completed (finished) the basement level of our antique home.

We love pets. We have two dogs: Heidi, a 6 year-old lhasa apso/terrier mix and Maggie, a 1 1/2 year-old schnauzer (both female). Both are Project Pet rescue dogs.

One of us has two adult daughters and both of them are okay with us being ourselves.

We would like to meet other couples for friendship.
