I am 6', 235 (lost 20) and still working on it. I smile easily, love my friends and family, like to read books, magazines, newspapers, the cereal box--anything. Love to be outdoors and learn how the world works. Seeking similarly curious person with an open mind and youthful attitude. Oh, yes...I have short salt and pepper hair, short beard, hazel eyes, quick smile, affectionate.

Oh, the photo...it was taken on Hurricane Ridge in Olympia National Park in Washington State in July,'09, on a very foggy day. A second trip there the next day was spectacular with wild flowers, broad vistas including a glacier, wild animals.

I like photography and video. I have produced several documentary and promotional videos for the university where I work. I have thousands of photos stored. I have a long-term video production I work on from time to time. It is about a long-gone village called Pandemonium, located in Perry County, PA. I wondered how such a remote village formed in 1790 got such a name. In John Milton's 'Paradise Lost,' Pandemonium was the name he gave to the central Castle of Hell, the Abode of All Demons. If you know anything about the village, formed around a leather tannery, let me know. The last residents left there in the early 1900s. Only a cemetery and a few foundations remain.

Keeping it simple, dessert, coffee, a walk, great conversation. Perhaps a little flirting if the vibe is right. Laughing and smiling as much as possible.
