Happy Holidays to everyone! About me - I am happy - confident - independent. I probably have enough energy for 3 people. 55 years in this world has taught me to be easy going and enjoy every day. Life can be very entertaining if you only let it! I am a very active person and in good, strong physical condition. A bit on the tiny side but I have a big heart! I love to cook! I enjoy swimming, bicycling, reading, boating, beaches, good wine, good coffee and I could go on and on. I love to try new things and find something new to learn every day. I manage a tutoring program for young children in a downtown city school. I also chair our company's committe for charity drives - United Way, Operation Feed and we adopt needy families at Christmas. I am looking for a strong active guy with passions and interests of his own that he'd like to share. Two people know immediately when they meet if there is an interest, but I truly believe it takes lots of time to establish a good relationship. I'm in no hurry. Let's have fun while we get to know one another. I am independent both financially and emotionally, but miss companionship. Two strong confident individuals can make an awesome couple. Please be local and do not smoke. I do not use IM much so an email is very welcome!

First meeting - maybe coffee or a glass of wine. First date - theater, live music or any kind of activity.
