I am looking for my "Best Friend/Soulmate" who lives in the Pacific Northwest and is equally in love with the area. I am passionate about the scenery in this area such as the trees, snow-capped mountains, rivers, creeks, and waterfalls etc. I enjoy hiking and camped when I was a younger woman. I have a "heart of gold" and am looking for the same in return. I enjoy men with a good sense of humor, who are hardworking, honest and kind and can communicate well. I enjoy the simple things in life, going to movies, out to eat, and traveling whenever possible. I am truly a "partner" type of women and work hard for needs and wants. I love my job and what I do for a living and I am good at it. I am usually happy/smiling, friendly, affectionate and thankful for much, especially nowdays. I am thrifty-enough, like a good deal, use coupons. I would be on top of the world living in a rustic/log cabin in the woods someday with a fireplace going! I adore wildlife like deers and would love one for a pet...or at least be able to watch them and other animals outdoors. I love rock and roll but I am still a little shy to dance in public. I would like someone with patience to help me get my confidence back in dancing without me having to drink alot to get there! Dancing also would be a whole lot more fun than going to the gym and working out (which I'm trying to do again 3 times a week).

First dates are usually awkward...so anything that allows conversation to get to know each other, I find best. Going out for a casual meal, taking a walk/hike, or meeting at a bar/nightclub with music. I think it would be even okay to go to something like the zoo! The funner the date the better, I like to laugh. Otherwise, I like to go to the movies. It's kind of hard to find a good comedy but I like them or a date-type of movie. I even believe that just e-mailing each other often in the beginning or talking on the phone helps make the first date feel more like the 3rd or 4th date.
