For all you ladies who view my profile don't be afraid to say hello. Alot of things start with a simple hello...............DWM, 51, healthy, single parent, daughter 15, full time custody, would like to date and find a lifemate. Very active, world traveler, realistic, decent. Many hobbies and intersts......scuba diving, fishing, fly fishing, wilderness adventures, world travel, photography, model railroads, airplanes, recording music, woodworking, steel art,playing music, training dogs etc.....I live in the country. Not a city person. I bought 40 acres of woods and I'm in the process of building my home/life there. Quiet secluded spot. Nature/wildlife. I am a professional musician. I play several different instruments/sing. (Mandolin, fiddle, guitars, viola, banjo, drums/percussion,learning piano, dulcimer.....). I play in a duo right now. I have a few songs on YouTube I could show you. I'm also a jack of all trades.....carpentry, mechanics, electric, welding, blacksmith, general repairs......I'd like to find an active lady. Not prissy. Someone that likes outdoors and wilderness getaways. A country living lover. Plenty of room for gardens and flowers here. Space to stretch and breathe. I would consider myself a decent, realistic man. I wont sit on my ass while the lady does all the chores. I'm even a good cook. If you're not looking for John Kennedy or Donald Trump I could be what your looking for. Come chat with me and discover who I am. You just may discover I am a pretty decent person. I'm not the "fatal attraction" type. If it's not meant to be I move on. ..... P.S. I'm not looking just for red hair. Hair color doesnt really matter. That's just the way I feel sometimes with this new dating scene. I feel like Charlie Brown looking for the red haired girl......

A first date could be dinner or whatever we decide to do when we chat or talk on the phone. There's a number of options. We'll worry about that when the time comes. Whatever makes you comfortable. I'm open to suggestions..........
