I enjoy a full life with family and friends but would like to find someone to share the everyday joys and sometimes sorrows. I enjoy staying active with hiking, biking, and/or other kinds of exercise. I also like quiet evenings at home with a good movie or book. I try to take advantage of this great area with long weekend trips to the beach, mountains, or gorge. At the end of a hectic week I like to relax with a glass of wine. I think it is essential to slow down and enjoy the small things in life.

A great first date would be to meet at a small quiet neighborhood restaurant. We would enjoy a drink, lite dinner and of course great conversation as we get to know each other. After dinner we would go for a leisurely walk in a park or by the river. We would continue our conversation on a park bench where our only focus would be the other person. We could end the evening some place with quiet music for a final drink and maybe dessert before we say good night.
