First off if you can't see yourself being in my pictures and doing the kind of things that I do it's probably not going to work,right? I'm not into shopping or if I do it is done very quickly and move on to something else. I'm not much for hanging around the house and I hate yard work. I can do it if there is someone to talk with while I work but on my own won't do it.

If I send you a one liner the fisrt time it is only to say hi and to send you my profile and pic,after that if you're interested let me know and if not it isn't the first time to go down in flames and probably not the last either. You have to shovel alot of dirt to uncover one diamond. Anyway if you're still with me here is the rest of my profile and if not good luck to you.

I am looking for an outdoor girl. One that is comfortable in blue jeans and t-shirt like I am. She should have a good sence of humor as I do. I find it better to laugh your way through life rather than cry. It is a kind of far side sence of humor but that's me. You should be able to take a bit of kidding as well as give it too. A girl that likes camping,quading,going to the mountains or just a nice drive. Of course I want someone that I am physically attracted to as I am sure you will want the same. Sexual attraction is very important to me and should be to you too! You don't have to look like Shania Twain and I don't care too much what your hair color or eyes are either,just as long as you have some of each. I am looking for someone that is slim to medium build,petite if you will. But that isn't written in stone everybody is different and you may be just what I'm looking for. I don't expect a perfect 10 as I know I'm certainly not myself but you should be fit. You should have a clearly definable figure and body shape. As you can see from my profile pics I spend the majority of my free time camping and making the most of our short summers. That is done west of Caroline and I spend a couple weeks a year out at Radium Hot Springs too.

I enjoy riding my bike when it's warm but I would rather be quadding. You see more of nature and more wildlife and I don't have to worry about some idiot in a jacked up 4X4 on my ass at 70 mph. I didn't put that many miles on it this year so I may enjoy it more next year if the weather is nicer. In the fall and winter I come indoors and enjoy the usual things such as going out for supper and a show,comedy club,playing pool or just staying home and snuggling on the couch watching a movie with bowl of popcorn and a cold beer. If weather allows I still like to get out sledding or taking in a poker rally too but nothing like I do in summer.

About me:For music I like country and old rock and like some of the new stuff as well. Just saw Pirate Radio and really enjoyed the music that I had all but forgotten. My favorite CD is(yes)Shania's UP 5,11 and 19. If you listen to those songs you will know what I'm like on the inside. I like chick flicks too,Meg Ryan is a favorite. Food:I love my breakfast(and will gladly make it too) and other than that shrimp or a good steak. I'm a meat and potatoes kind of guy,nothing fancy. Family:I am very close to my daughter who is 28 and my son is 18. He is at the stage where he doesn't spend as much time with me as I would like but I understand.

They don't have a very good set up for "Do you want children" so no I don't want to have any new children but I don't have a problem with your exsisting kids as you shouldn't have a problem with mine. That is one that a person can only deal with on a one on one situation.

Things I miss from a relationship:My best friend to talk to. The smell of your hair after a shower. To be able to touch you when I wake up,to hold you as we fall asleep. The look that you give me across a crowded room and the look I send back showing I miss your touch as much as you miss mine. I am very romantic once you get to know me.

Work:I have my own business and it is not too demanding. Every 4-6 weeks I go out of town for usually no more than three days. If you have the time you can come too. It involves a plane ride and then a nice long drive home. I love these little trips although when I'm by myself I make them too quick. I would enjoy the company.

Friends:The best,and life long too! So that is me,if you are interested send me a message and we'll see where it goes. Oh,and if you end up on my favorites list it is just a simple way to show that I am interested in you and an easy way to keep track. Sometimes I just don't have time right that minute to send a message and this way I can find you again when I do have time. If you aren't interested in me just simply remove it and I'll take the hint.

I have if you can believe it actually messaged women in the dreaded "Intimate Encounter" cataglorie. Sometimes to ask where the picture was taken(because the scenery looks cool)and sometimes to ask what kind of bike they're riding.(You know the tiny pictures)And sometimes they have messaged me basically about the same things. If you read their ads you would see that they are looking for relationships too just like everyone else on here. They just probably have a high sex drive and aren't afraid to admitt it. There is very few women that are looking for the slam bam thank you mam. So because of this I can't send messages to some of you so if you are interested you will have to make the first contact. Just a hint for some of you that are always wondering why guys put you on the "favorites list" and never send you a message. Give it a rest girls and lose some of your mail settings and you may get more replies. You can always drop or block the guy afterwards if you want but you may be shooting yourself in the foot in the mean time. A little early in the game to be telling each other who they can or can't talk to don't you think?? My helpful hint.(remember you got what you paid for)

I don't know off hand what the first date would entail,it would depend on many things.Depending on things that we have talked about or kidded about but probably something that would not stress either one of us.Maybe something light hearted like YukYuk's.I would try and do something that would put us both at ease.
