Hi: I'm a semi-retired, yet very active person. I still do some design and contracting work like home renovations and some architectural designs. I ran a commercial contracting business for 20 years and enjoyed it alot, so it's still fun to do it at a more relaxed pace. I also enjoy restoring vintage sports cars such as jaguars and aston martins, and motorcycles, not for the prestige of ownership but for the enjoyment of the work involved. I usually sell the project after it's been completed and move on to looking for the next challenge. Socially, I'm quite simple, and enjoy sushi as much as a steak. I moved from Alberta because I love the ocean side lifestyle and oppotunities. I enjoy people with life stories to tell.

A successfull first date for me would be if no one looked at their watch until they started clearing the restaurant tables. A few laughs and relaxed conversation in a quaint dining place, preferably alfresco if the evening air is warm enough to allow it. Ending the night like a half finnished bag of potato chips; knowing that it would be nice to have more later.
