My self-summary
I believe happiness is available to us, but requires awareness, right actions, and the ability to give without expectations. I can't claim to have that wired in, but am working on it. Laughter is essential, good humor and ready smiles are defining in a healthy and rich relationship. Family, friends, connectedness (to others) are pretty fundamental to being whole and those relationships deserve honor and care. I like the freedom of spontaneity, of seeing what may come next "on its own." I believe my friends would consider me very warm, thoughtful, a good listener, intellectual and spiritual. I am an "informal" Taoist/Buddhist, believing in awareness, mindfulness and being present. I really like to laugh, love good humor, comedy, the ability to self-efface.
What I’m doing with my life
I am semi-retired, doing occasional contract work in the water and renewable energy arenas. I was in the consulting business (environment, water, energy) for three decades. I now give a lot of time to non-profits (at-risk youth; environmental/public policy; the homeless). I'll get back into work fairly soon, there are things to get done.

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Sometimes a Great Notion; Steve Jobs; T'ang Dynasty Poets; The Snow Leopard; Ghengis Khan; Just Kids. Coen Brothers films; Midnight in Paris; Ai Weiwei Never Sorry. Music: R&R (Stones); R&B; Blues; Classical. Food- the smaller restaurants in Hawthorne, Alberta, Mississippi; Mingo.

Good coffee; spring migration; mountains and rivers; a good laugh; the next hike; maybe you.
I spend a lot of time thinking about

You should message me if
This makes any sense. You like to "rise to the occasion," you are intellectually curious, spiritual about life (without dogma).... Attractive, comfortable in our mountains and rivers, likes to travel, likes to cook (as two, bumping around the kitchen).
