Oh yeah ... and Older Women ...

Find quirky little small-town shops, little markets, County Fairs
Museums, Art Galleries, Historic Places
Travel: Drive to Lake Placid
Cottage
Gaze at the Celeste beside the Lake
Track "The Moons"
"Feel the Earth MOVE under my feet"

Think of "funky" things to try - for the first time

Zen, "Non-Attachment"
Compassion, Freedom, Nothing to hide. Natural.
Unconditional LOVE
See Yourself in others
"Look within, thou art the Buddha"
"When the Student is ready the Master will appear"
Learn something new everyday
Don't be afraid to "Ask"
Small is Beautiful.

Live each second in time to its fullest.
Life is transitory and ephemeral.
Everything that happens ... has happened before

Go 4 it!
Dance with the Satyrs and Dryads in the pale moonlight
... in the deepest part of the Woods

If you have a cell phone (and it is vital)- you got the wrong guy!
If you cannot change - you got the wrong mate (embrace change)
If a glass of wine is more than just a spirit - you got the wrong pickup
If you like getting weird - we can discuss
If you have been treated other than a human (and allowed it) - you won't get it

"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle"
If this makes sense we might be close to a commonality

Treat a Women as a Lady. Be a gentleman. Discuss what you have read. Trade stories. Discuss "the moment" and moments in time. Talk about what's "doin'" on the street. Honesty. Listen. Make you laugh.

Friends can be people who walk this planet that you just haven't met, yet. You just have to go walking and then say "Hi" - to them.
