I am a professional gentleman seeking a personable, intelligent, energetic and adventuresome lady with whom to share life's adventures; from the "Moments that take our breath away"; to quiet intimate times. I am absolutely NOT a couch potato.

MY ENVIRONMENT: Old house on a rural hilltop. It has a stone wall with pillars on either side of the driveway. A glassed-in front porch with a hot tub, gas fireplace a pond/valley view is one of the better rooms. A pool is in the very private back yard. The eclectic house is a "renovation-in-progress" taking, patience and foresight in the interim.

WHAT I LOVE; The beauty if the Finger Lakes, their wineries, Erie Canal, Thousand Islands. Cruising or kayaking on them or just “chilling” on theses waters; My 3 sons (not the TV program); The oldest has a lovely wife and two daughters; the middle son and his daughter and youngest son live with my ex-wife; Blessings I have received include my; health, good luck, a recently learned sense of patience and, a helpful self-understanding of myself and those around me.

MY DREAMS; 1) Find “The ONE” with whom to share life; 2) Enjoy the pleasure of her company – from the every-day things we do with and in support of each other to…having fun together;

TRAVEL WISHES; Montreal - bike, Colorado River rafting, Adirondack hiking, Bermuda pink sand lounging, Caribbean SCUBA diving (or snorkel), NYC / Toronto plays, most of Europe.

MY CHARACTERISTICS (Horn toot); I am trim, healthy, energetic, ambitious, self-confident, creative and articulate (most of the time). I have a cautious sense of adventure, upbeat personality and a good sense of humor. I can easily laugh at myself (and provide enough opportunities). I am reasonably sane, trustworthy and honest. I am loving, affectionate, caring and sensual with the right one. I take pride in my appearance and work at maintaining myself in good physical condition. I have almost all the skills to build a house. I am very / driven, hard working – too much so – need to kick-back! I have a passion for life and a renewed appetite to enjoy it to the fullest every day. I am fiscally secure.

YOU ARE: kind, considerate, loving, affectionate, sensual, active, and trim. You recognize that probably neither of us is “PERFECT”, we still relish our partner, we are good for each other and each is better because we are “one”. You have your own interests and needs but gladly join me in our mutual desires. You help maintain honest and open communication so we stay “in touch”. You have friends and relatives, whom are and will continue to be important to you but, we are very important to each other. Are these high expectations? Absolutely, but I think these are the core of a good relationship and this is what I will gladly give you in return! You are sincere enough in your search that you have written enough about yourself so I have a clue about who you “are”.

PICTURES - Include Pub/Portsmouth UK, Darwin Martin House/ Buffalo, Silo/Silver Lake, Pa, Cayuga Lake, Mini Rally/Finger Lakes, Wall construction/home.

THE FUTURE: I plan to work until the summer of 09. Thereafter it depends on who I find and what she wants to do. I will consider re-locating for the right lady and would consider being a snow bird or at least having an RV to get out of the north east winters.

Whatever makes us both comfortable and gives us a chance to get to know each other.
