Hi !...I'm an old-fashioned gentleman, in a romantic sort of way....deeply sentimental and romantic, with strong values, work ethics and integrity....I cherish honesty and my word....My passions and interests are varied and many....I love being in nature and among wildlife, and have a strong appreciation of such...definite animal lover as I have a rescue horse, belguin sheppard, 3 feral rescue barn cats, chickens ( for fresh eggs), ducks ( as pets), and as of june 25th, 10 more new additions, newly hatched ducklings, now 3 and half weeks old ( I plan on keeping them as undomesticated as possible, and releasing them to a suitable sanctuary with a pond or lake, in the spring)..woodworking, I love building things, and would like to refine my talents in this area in the future to perhaps building furniture, etc..organic gardening, ..I've grown my own vegatables, cooking herbs, and flowers, from seed, since I was a teen...landscaping, fishing, home improvement projects, and cooking ( I take pride in my cooking, especially in a romantic setting and for a special lady who is attentive, receptive, and appreciates that sort of thing)....Other interests are learning how to dance, and taking horse back riding lessons, with a patient and understanding partner..
I'm drawn to the wholesome, natural look of a woman, someone who is creative, artsy, full of ideas, has strong values and ethics, cherishes integrity, honesty, and monogamy, likes sharing thoughts, ideas, feelings, and goals as part of working side by side as a team, in building a solid foundation and direction,is attentive in noticing the little things around her that make life so special, and is a true romantic, and loves being treated as a lady...I still believe in the concept of "happily ever after", the fairy tale, and building towards an inseparable bond...

I would prefer a dinner date, in a cozy restaurant, a little on the quiet side, in an effort to get to know my date thru conversation, and to see if we have that illusive mutual attraction, chemistry, compatibility, and intensity, and to whether there would be anything to pursue, perhaps a movie after dinner, if things went well, or a moonlit walk
