Just a well-rounded, down-to-earth kind of guy. Friends describe me as positive, fun, honest, kind and sincere. I enjoy being active, doing thing outside, projects around the house and garden, sight-seeing, spending time with friends and family, appreciate the simple pleasures in life. Positive attitude, able to laugh at myself and the crazy things we all do sometimes. I've got a good career, and life's been kind to me, but it needs to be shared. I like nature and the outdoors. Playing golf, traveling or working in my garden, there's always something to appreciate. I enjoy landscaping, planting things, trying new ideas. I like to hike, roller blade, tennis, bike, day trips (Longwood Gardens, Inner Harbor, etc.), explore new places, or just relax at home with a video or CD's. Entertaining, grilling or cooking for friends, or a romantic dinner for two is fun too.

Not seeking perfection, just the woman who's right for me. She's active and energetic, with a healthy curiosity for life & learning. She's healed from past hurts, but willing to talk about things so we can understand each other. I believe in talking, communicating in ways that makes a relationship better. There are no rights or wrongs when saying what's in the heart. She'll appreciate little love notes, or a phone call to say I'm thinking of her. Her romantic side might whisper in my ear "it's a full moon, let's take a walk". She's feminine, but with a touch of tomboy now and then. She enjoys doing projects together, maybe planting flowers or redoing a room, not afraid to get her hands dirty. She won't mind if the wind tousles her hair, it adds to her charm. Playful teasing will be fun, even a bit silly at times. She can be serious too, and enjoys just being close and relaxing quietly in front of the fireplace.

By the way, I reply to almost every email I get, even if only to say that I don't think we're the right match. I think if someone takes the time to write a sincere and thoughtful email, it is only appropriate to acknowledge it. We're all human.

This is something we can both decide after we talk on the phone and get acquainted a little bit. First meetings can be awkward enough, so I think keeping it simple is the way to go. If things click, then we can feel more comfortable on the next date.
