"Dream as if you'll live forever, Live as if you'll die today." has gotten me thru much of my life as a happy camper! Recently, I have returned to the world of tournament Bridge, I'm loving it now as I remember 9 years ago. I like to go fishing frequently, enjoying the mountains and the trees, remembering the Rockies on horseback for days. I'm a big football and baseball enthusiast, and like to play cribbage and dominoes, gin rummy too... Careful! I win a lot! Farkle is not beyond me. We don't quit playing until I win! Usually, it takes awhile to get lucky!

I grew up in San Francisco. I do go back with some regularity and recently lived only an hour away. I have not lost my desire for the stage. I have seen "Phantom of the Opera" seven times, mostly under the guise of "taking friends who have not seen it." From West Side Story, to Godspell, to Mama Mia and Les Mis. I've seen many. Honestly, its been too long since I've enjoyed another great evening at the theater. Help me out, give us a reason to go together.

I have seen many Neil Diamond concerts. I enjoy country music stars, Garth, Kenny, and many more, Saw Kerry Underwood in concert recently. I have a great liking of music, across a wide variety.

I love to laugh, tell and listen to a few jokes. I love 1-liners and the people that love to laugh at them. I would really love to see ROFL happen within my sight. Not to worry, my hand will be there helping you back to your feet. I fully enjoy strawberries with brown sugar and sweet cream. Yes, you can. I will put one on your tongue too. Maybe a glass of great wine to enhance and accent the different and melding flavors! Does a sip of wine cause a ripe strawberry to taste even sweeter?

I have the awareness that everyone should have; the moral of the story: "Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong." Yes! There is a story. Drop a note, I'll send it to you. Your giggles and your laughter will soon follow. No, its not a BLONDE joke!

First date? Hmmm... . There is a time that we will want to meet. I think it should be sooner, not later. Messaging thru email, becomes a bore and we miss soooo much not being able to hear voice, to see body language, the delight of smiles and laughter. I think "no stress" and "light hearted" gives opportunity for us to relax and be ourselves in a short time. Then learning about each other can happen freely. Learning is important because that will determine if we ever see each other again. New happiness is a great find! Meeting a lady for the first time, in my mind, must be exciting and easy. The same for a lady meeting a guy for the very first time. Being anxious will cause some of the excitement. seeing you will add to it and together we can make it easy. On the other side, if its not right, there will be easy exits.
