My self-summary
Me... Well I am your average quick witted slightly sarcastic easy going water lover. I really try to enjoy the simple things in life and have lived enough life to know the importance of being happy. I am an honest, direct person.
I am easy going, active, restless at times.

I share my house with my awesome cats and a Pug. I cannot tolerant bigots. I talk too much at times. I am just being me in a world that is constantly trying to change me!

I love my friends and they are a wonderful part of my life. My daughter is a constant source of amazement to me.

Who is this person I hope to meet? Someone who is happy with their live and would like to share it with me. An independent, easy going guy who is intelligent but can laugh at the craziness that life sometimes brings.
What I’m doing with my life
I am enjoying my life! I love to take a road trip to one of the great lakes, wander and take photographs. I have been slowly delving into art shows to display and sell my photos. I have met some amazing people and been having a great time! I would love to learn how to work with metal and create things.
Spending time with my daughter, trying to not give up teaching myself to play bagpipes, thinking about returning to school, wondering if I will ever really travel to Scotland.
I’m really good at
feeding alligators without getting bit, skipping stones, listening.
The first things people usually notice about me
I really don't know...
My dry sense of humor?
I have never asked anyone. Maybe you could answer that?
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
My musical tastes are eclectic and all over the place. Depends on the mood and day but anything from Flogging Molly to Ray Lamontague. On my current must listen to list are Brandi Carlile, Brett Dennen, The Dememberists, Neil Young, Darden Smith,
A Fine Frenzy.
Movie/TV wise I like documentaries, CSI type shows. I love Beetlejuice and A Fish Called Wanda.

I love dining at the random little diners you find on a road trip. Breakfast food is a anytime meal for me. And ice cream, no matter the weather.

Books!! I love to read, Poe is a favorite. I love to read things that are thought provoking.
The six things I could never do without
In random order...

1. friends and family~never miss a chance to be happy
2. the water~I find peace and a magical calm at the water
3. my camera~the link between my mind and eye
4. hope~ without it the heart would break
5. quotes~ something about words that speak to me
6. music~ makes the world go 'round
I spend a lot of time thinking about
everything! I wonder about the future, which came first the chicken or the egg.
What cool whip is made from, if I will ever get into an airplane, what it would be like to so far out into the water that I could not see land.
I sometimes even think about thinking!
On a typical Friday night I am
Taking a walk at the water, listening to live local music, kayaking, or wandering with my camera. Or watching mindless things on netflix, or dinner with friends. I guess I don't have a typical Friday night.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
that I have been known to start singing random songs when some one says a word....
As in someone says the word witness and suddenly, " Can I get a witness, talking 'bout my baby" (think Grand Funk Railroad)
I’m looking for
  • Guys who like girls
  • Ages 40–50
  • Near me
  • Who are single
  • For new friends, long-term dating
You should message me if
your still reading my profile and want to know more about me!
Or if you play the bagpipes and have always wanted to teach someone else. Or if you just want to mock me for trying to teach myself to play the pipes. :)
Or if you can explain the term short term dating. I mean, do people go into a dating situation with an agreement that the dating will last approx 3 months then regardless of how things are going we shall end the relationship? Just curious...

Also I am not into hook ups, secret relationships, misunderstood husbands, causal sex, or polyamory.
