Hello, writing an ad is out of character for me, but here goes. I love my job and when I'm not working, I enjoy working around my home, renovations, gardening, trees, plants and flowers. I like to be active, skiing in the winter and mountain biking in the summer, riding the trails near my home along the Grand River. I possess a great zest for life and laughter and hope one day to share it with that special someone. Being a single guy I also like to cook and yes I clean up too. I like walks and handholding (sounds corny) but I do. My friends describe me as hardworking, mannered, friendly, playful and very dependable. Wow! writing an ad is tough. I would like to meet a lady who is fun spirited, honest, kind, energetic and friendly. Looking for a lady who like me, has strong family values and knows the importance of friendship.

The first date should be something casual....dinner, drinks or even just coffee. It should be one on one, giving a chance to get to know each other. Definitely not a movie, you don't get a chance to chat. To me a great date, some other time would be a picnic lunch, full tank of gas and no destination. To stop here and there and explore the small towns around our community.
