(Revised 6/17/09 Ladies I'll tell you a little about me because there is no room here to write a book.lol Raised on a farm,ex-Navy,professional law enforcement covering many fields and branches, so its been a rather exciting life. I am a tall big guy, gregarious,don't like to hurt people,a Christian,although I could always improve. I do drink socially in moderation and rather it be in a nice restaurant instead of a bar and with a meal. Wine or Margueritas preferably or none if you prefer I don't. I am a romantic at heart because I love to kiss and hold hands and snuggle up beside you. I do not have a lot of hobbies but I love singing country music with a good band. I can not play a guitar though so I depend on the band. I have invested in a 2008 Honda Goldwing 1800cc motorcycle that I recently had triked for more stability and quite frankly I love it. I would love to put you behind me in the passenger seat and ride the two lane backroads with other motorcyclists, men and women because there is fun in a group. If you have never experienced the smell of blooming honeysuckle in the air and the breeze blowing in your face you are definitly missing another thrill. Our rides usually cover up to 150 miles in a day with several refreshment stops. I don't ride in outlaw gangs though. If we hit it off and desire to then we could always go to the Great Smoky Mountains or somewhere for a weekend trip at my expense naturally. I own a 21ft.pontoon boat that is up for sale and when that happens I will get a fishing boat. I like bass fishing. I do not hunt anymore because frankly I don't eat the meat and I prefer to watch wildlife other than kill it. I like pets but I currently have none because I live by myself and am in and out so much. I don't believe in tieing up dogs on a chain. To me thats like a prison. Ladies I mean no offense at all but obesity turns me off, I simply can't help it, just as my physique may not be what you prefer, after all we are all seeking the right person. To be honest, I don't care if your teeth are false or you've had a boob job, face lift,etc.but naturally I want to be proud of your looks. (Don't we all?)As for me, I am six feet two inches and down to 250lbs.and still losing due to watching my diet.Grey hair and blue eyes. My estate is already willed to my children so preferably things would be better if you had your own place if we should marry and I should kick the bucket and thats being as honest as I can be. I am not a fortune hunter and do not want a gold digger but I am not the least bit selfish either, just plain spoken. It gets lonely living by oneself and I have a whole lot of love to offer the right person. Waiting for her photo to "jump out at me."I don't consider myself rich or poor but "comfortable.GOD HAS BLESSED ME.

Here I'd want to please the woman. Naturally I would offer to take you motorcycle riding,dining at a nice place where the food is good and we could converse and where you would feel safe being with me. Have a few drinks if you desire and talk. You may even have some ideas that I never thought of, after all I was married for years and its been a while since I courted anyone so take that into consideration please.
I definitely would not want you to feel nervous so I hope that would quickly diminish. I like laughter and conversation and getting to know one another. If the spark is not there we both realize these things happen and should understand. I
would soon know and so would you (if we failed to make any future dates). Just please do not expect me to be Arthur Murray and dance all night because I am not that good at it. Dogs and little children seem to like me though. lol .I hope you will too. I clean up nice! I have a good reputation in my community. I am a FreeMason,a Knight Templar, a Wilson County Commissioner and a Criminal Court Officer. I have never been arrested for anything, not even a traffic ticket!lol
