Let’s start with the kinda girl that strikes me:
-Would rather go for a drive through the mountains than a walk on the beach
-Enjoys watching old 70's and 80's movies while making silly jokes
-Has her own life, relationships are best when people want each other, not need each other
-Still a kid at heart, is happy to run around being silly, or wandering a toy store getting excited about finding old toys
-Likes snuggling up, I'm an affectionate guy and like having my girl by my side.
-Bit of a smartass, a sharp wit and good sense of humor will go miles

So if that strikes a chord with you, get a hold of me. I think we could get along.

I'm a very relaxed guy. I'm a bit of a night owl, tend to be up rather late. I'm a car guy, and driving is one of my favorite pastimes. I find few things more enjoyable then wandering back roads and places I've never been, finding places long forgotten. The camera is the other love. I'm not a professional, but I'd like to think I'm not half bad behind the lens.

I've got my life together, have a good job working at the hospital, which I love, and I'd like to have a girl who's got a good head on her shoulders that's taking care of herself as well.

I've got a rather eclectic taste in music. I love blues, 80's/90's rock, new age, classical. Only music that isn't quite my taste is modern pop and rap. Just something about it seems to lack the heart of the older music.

For a first date usually I like to take a girl out for lunch, then go to a park, walk around and talk, get to know the person. If everything's going well perhaps go catch dinner or a movie, keep a good day going. I've always felt first dates should be very casual, doing something too big tends to be a distraction that keeps you from actually meeting someone and getting a feel for who they are. And that's the whole point of a first date isn't it?
