I have been traveling a lot this year ('09), so I will update more later...........or contact me anyway. We can talk then.

Life's way too short to not experience it, especially with someone who feels the same. Any particular day I may be found shopping, walking in the woods, dancing, enjoying some old, romantic movie by the fireplace, volunteering at the food pantry (or wherever I am needed), traveling the country on a vintage railcar, or any number of other possibilities. I really enjoy night fishing(ice and open water). I love seafood, sushi and fresh veggies, flan, Huckleberries!......and whipped cream, though not all at once.

I do my best to keep an open mind about life, an open heart towards others, and open arms toward all possibilities. I prefer to have honest people (friends) in my life, though I understand that every experience has the potential to teach me something. I want to be happy and to share that happiness with someone.

Is it true that everybody lies? :0 Are you honest, willing to take a risk to be happy? Do you take care of yourself? Do you dance? Wanna learn? Tango is the next big thing. Romantic. Sensual. Do you like sun & the beach? Snow & the fireplace? Cuddling? Holding hands? Soft passionate kisses? Ever danced in the rain? .....

Any questions about my profile or about me? Please Ask. The one word answers above do not tell the whole story.

Oh, BTW, it really doesn't matter who responds, but I do place precedence on those with a photo.

.......to be continued.....

I don't think much about the first date. I'd rather let it unfold. Lunch, dinner, a walk, a dance.
