I am very friendly, outgoing, and like to give. I am a fairly active person. I enjoy walking/exercising as this is both good for the mind and the body. My family and friends tell me I have a lot to offer. I am very thoughtful, caring, and romantic. Summer time is my favorite as I enjoy the sun, water, flea markets, estate sales, picnics, wineries, movies, dancing, music, dining out, cooking, BBQ, weekend getaways, traveling to small towns, and also domestic and international travel. Also like to camp, fish, hunt, golf, biking, walking, exercise, and exploring mother nature. I enjoy watching the Rams, Cards, and Mizzou. In the winter it sure is nice to be cuddled up on the couch watching the snowflakes in front of a nice fire. To me there is so much to do in life and sometimes it is not always what you do together it is just being together. We all have our likes and dislikes and sometimes it is kinda neat to learn about and enjoy your interests. A strong relationship is built on give and take. I do believe in the good Lord and someday you must put him first to achieve the things you want.

I am a father, a grandpa, uncle, and I have three beautiful daughters and three lovely grandaughters so family values are very important to me. I was born and raised in a small town namely Ste. Genevieve, Mo. My parents were very discipline and instilled in me great work ethics. I like challenges and I usually face them head on and because of my drive and determination I do succeed in most things. Communication, honesty, and trust are very important to me, and also to a long term relationship. I am a one woman man,always have been, and always will be. Let us be sincere and things will be great!

I am looking for a special lady. Physical attraction, chemistry, spark, or whatever you may want to call it, is very important at first, but beauty also comes from within and this to me is just as important as the outside qualities. She can be high or low maintenance, she can be blond, brunette, or whatever color hair or eyes. She would just be herself, and take care of herself, for herself. And I do know how to treat a woman and that is with the utmost respect and dignity.

I have worked hard and efficient all my life and invested my monies wisely so I am financially secure. And now that I am retired I want to do things and go places. Don't get me wrong I enjoy my quiet times at home also.

Life is short so let us meet, get to know each other, become friends, then best friends, perhaps fall in love unconditionally, and enjoy life, and each and every day to the fullest.

On our first meet/date I would like to meet in a public place for a drink of choice and/or a appetizer. Of course is there is a connection then both of us would express to each other about any future dates.
