Hi there!
I have lived in the Tampa Bay area my entire life except for college. I have a very laid back personality but enjoy spending time with all types of people. I have been in the real estate industry for 17 years. The last 10 years I have been working as a software consultant for a company that provides property tax solutions to government agencies.

Here are some of my hobbies:

The gym is my passion. I am not a fanatic but do try to workout at least 3-5 days a week. In the old days, I competed in the Scottish Highland games. Have you ever tossed a caber?

I really enjoy traveling especially when it isn't work related. Some of my past vacations include England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Italy twice, Germany, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Belize, the Caribbean, Mexico, and Hawaii. I am planning a trip to Spain and Portugal during the winter months. There might be an extra ticket lying around for the right person!

I am an amateur wine maker. My favorites include Chilean Malbec, Chianti, and Pinot Noir. Yummy!

Reading books is a great activity while traveling or working out. During my younger years, I avoided every type of book possible. Now, I run through 2-3 a month. I will have to admit that I cheat by listening to them on my iPod.

Football is my favorite sport. I am a long-suffering Bucs fan and attend several games a year. I never miss an FSU game even though it has been painful to watch them over the last several years.

I am not looking for a specific woman. Every person has redeeming qualities and can be beautiful in their own way. I do however, like women that take care of themselves.

The first date should consist of casual conversation over drinks. The second date could be dinner or zipping around the bay on my jet ski.
