“spirited & loving” or “slim & fit”? Although getting back my 20 year old figure would be awesome if I had to chose I’d rather be known as spirited & loving. At the end of the day does anyone really believe it matters how well our jeans fit? Love has absolutely nothing to do with size, looks or any of the superficial things we focus on. My joys in life include shared laughter and great conversations, cats, dogs, walks by the water, exploring new places, theatre, movies, good books, art, friends, family (I just happen to have the world’s best brother and one amazing, loving daughter …. but honest I’m not biased in any way), dining out, quiet evenings dining in, thunderstorms, open arms and warm hearts. My interests are varied but digital photography is where I really strive to improve my skills.
Oh, one other thing, I'm new to Plenty of Fish so please bear with me while I get my feet wet (I already accidentally deleted a message...oops..sorry). I converse well in person, not so good on dating sites.

Safety first so after a coffee date to check each other out (we won't count that as a first date) then maybe a great afternoon driving up the coast, wandering beaches or exploring then a nice relaxing dinner. If I found a willing volunteer, I also think a great first date would be to go kayaking. Do I know how to kayak....no...but I would love to learn. I watch kayakers on the Gorge and it looks so peaceful to paddle in the water.
