Independent, outgoing, energetic are a few of the characteristics that describe me. Although I do not consider myself a girly girl I do embrace my feminine side and enjoy dressing up. Including wearing 3" heels now and again (I am 5'7") On the days off I will throw on my jeans, boots and baseball hat and go play in the dirt in the garden. Many have said if there were a 12 step program for plants I would need to join. This energizer bunny is constantly on the go.

WATER, WATER, WATER – I love the water- Will take salt water over fresh water. Hood Canal South Shore, Kalaloch, Arch Cape, Cannon Beach are some favorites. I believe the reason I like the salt water over fresh is due to the tides the waves. The salt water has its own unpredictable moods which brings its own excitement. Another favorite is going to the Mt Rainier (Paradise and Sunrise) to see the wild flowers.
Arizona, Spring Training- Much of my family has moved to Arizona so although I am not a big baseball fan. I love going to Spring Training and watching the M’s. Watching the game, catching some sun and visiting my family, how can you top that?

My ideal man enjoys conversation. He likes to go out to dinner to nice places and funky little obscure places. He can be spontaneous. He enjoys going for a car ride to destinations unknown for a picnic. He doesn’t mind helping in the kitchen. I cook he does the dishes or he cooks I do the dishes.
Bonus if you are a man that knows his way around tools etc. (No I don't have any home repair work that needs to be done).

This Pollyanna prefers a person that looks at the glass being 1/2 full. Stability is a must. Looking for my best friend the person I look forward to spending time with. Someone I can be vulnerable with. I am looking for someone to enhance my life and possible long term relationship.
Sure do miss riding horses. Just purchased a bike so if you are up for a bike ride...let's get going! I just hate doing things solo.

What I am going to do when I grow up. Oh wait I REFUSE to grow up!

At home or maybe meeting up with a friend afterwork. Nothing too exciting here. Wanna change this?

I am pretty much an open book. No big secrets to divulge.

You have energy and open heart. You love to laugh and don't take life too seriously. You too are at least open to the possibility of a long term relationship. You like animals.
