I am an artist, designer and chef...Ive been known to turn a good word and carry a tune too. all-in-all, a creative sort. I really enjoy spending time in the wilderness, sea or traveling. I love adventure and finding boundaries and limits within and outside of my world.

I enjoy looking at art not being seen with art...I am ambitious...My mamma raised me right...I'm not a mamma's boy...I am a recovering chef and enjoy showing it off at times...I've been dead for several minutes before...I know worse people than me to know and I will help you to avoid them...

Ive met Red_Hen and have been getting deeper into understanding one another and bonding. As someone I know has said' " You never know what the Universe has in store for you!"

Before that I had been working on farm that is a homestead meets retreat that is for people to create their work. The current project is a boat that is becoming a cabin- "No One's Ark"

I can fit into any situation if I am willing...I am always up for keeping the momentum going...I have a quiet opinion on just about everything, I'm just waiting for a better one to replace them...I can pretend...I throw great parties...I can spell and articulate my thoughts which makes me communicative...I can make almost anything with just about everything...I am a recovering chef and enjoy showing it off at times...I am a top-notched problem solver...I go on very adventurous camping trips and can save yer butt...I know over a dozen ways to create a fire in the wilderness

well, on the outside, it's my beard and long hair. Closer, I've been told my eyes.. closer still, my insides (snakes, snails and puppy dog tails ;)

________ and a blank space that will hold whatever I want in it

far-off places, recipes, works of art, making out, the past, the present, the future - hell I think a lot about a lot

probably going out with friends- depends on where I am

that would come with intimacy or trust or both methinks

if you think we might get on
I like meeting new people that I have something in common with
