I believe a first date should be somewhere where you can talk and get to know one another. A nice musical venue or a quite restaurant. Some place that is mutually acceptable for the both of us and where we can comfortably talk and get to know one another.

I own my own furniture and decorating business specializing in large developments. I have been in the decorating business for almost 25 years. Having my own business allows me the flexibility to travel to meet a nice match. I enjoy finding hole in the wall cafes and mom and pop motels and enjoy anything nostalgic. I also enjoy working in my yard. I love to camp and most anything outdoors. In my eyes, anywhere you can throw a blanket down, is a great place for a picnic. Mountain drives and the beach are two of my favorite things. This fishing thing, however, is not my favorite thing. But since I do not do the bar scene, this seemed like an okay option. My dream is to retire where it is warm . . . a beach area where I want to open a Tiki hut selling flip flops, shell necklaces, moo moos and hot dogs with my famous chili and of course . . . great margaritas! I am a very open, honest person and have high morals and standards but I'm no stick in the mud . . . I know how to have a great time! I am looking for someone who is fun loving, mature and knows how to have a relationship. Anything can be fun if you're with the right person. I enjoy traveling, family time and enjoy entertaining. Weekend trips to quaint towns is something I really enjoy doing as well. Respectability, honesty, and a strong character are all characteristics that I look for in people especially my partner If you would like to chat, drop me a note.
