I am a successful, hard working, honest, intelligent guy who now finds himself (somewhat reluctantly) trying online dating after losing my wife and soul mate of 34 yrs to cancer. You think you've got life figured out at this age and it throws you a curve.
Very musical, play guitar, mandolin and sing. Would LOVE to have someone to harmonize with. I enjoy most types of music if done well, with the exception of rap. Not much in to top 40 pop though.
I find little of interest on TV of late, but will make time for 30 Rock, Mad Men, "Earl", and 60 Minutes. I spend NO time on reality or sports programs.
Enjoy seeing/experiencing new places and revisiting old favorites. Three grown sons, two young grandchildren.
I'm very down to Earth and honest to a fault. I stay up-to-date on current events and have a knack for trivia that often surprises me.
Politically, I'm socially liberal, but fiscally conservative. I don't listen to AM talk radio; more of an N.P.R. kind of guy.
Raised Catholic, but organized religion not my bag, even though I love bluegrass gospel music.
Being self employed, I can work when I want, take off at will, which is nice.
I just need someone to take along...

Ladys choice for what to do the first date. See how I got off the hook on that one?
Since we're talking internet, most likely first meet up will be coffee or a glass of wine. You have to see I'm not a weirdo, creepoid, right?
If a second date is to happen, it could be anything from going to a nice restaurant, to taking in a music festival, or going on a hike with a picnic.
