My self-summary
There is a song by called Hillbilly Hippy New Age Redneck. I love it! Any how, I have lived in Bend for 12 years, own a home, have a dog, and am self employed.

I am a bit of a project guy, I like to build and fix things. I also like to get out and explore. Two summers ago I hiked the Oregon coast and would love to do the Oregon part of the PCT at some point. I enjoy x-county skiing in the winter. When I was in high school I taught alpine skiing but am not as interested in it any more. I garden and like to eat good food and try to take care of my self, not to say that I am any kind of strict health freak. I enjoy trying to be self sufficient. I like to cook and can (that is the canning kind of can, but I can cook too). I brew beer. I enjoy different art projects, I sew and make braid-in wool rugs. Almost every summer I go to Burning Man. Dancing to good music is high on my list!

There is a lot more but you will have to e-mail to get it.

I am Mellow, resorcuful, and fun
What I’m doing with my life
I am a self employed contractor/handyman. I doing some remodeling on my house. At some point I want to sell my place or rent it and depending on my partner at the time ether travel or buy land. One of my ongoing projects is to find every hot spring in Oregon, even the cool ones, and take a picture of it as best I can. A lot of the hot springs are on privet property so I have only been able to get so close.
I’m really good at
Being handy. being a good friend. a lot of guy things. cooking and other less dude things too.
The first things people usually notice about me
Well it had been my beard, because it was long but it is more normal now. This question is kinda open to interpretation, am I at work, out hiking, out dancing. I am not sure what it is.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Jonathan Livington Seagull, Princes Bride or Never Ending Story and Home Grown, New Grass and things with instruments I do go out to DJ stuff but just because it is easy to find, I love March 4th live! Food, I like all kinds, but feel best when I eat more veggies, I like to have fresh juice in the mornings.
The six things I could never do without
fresh juice, my dog (maybe till she passes), some way to go out exploring (4x4), friends, hot springs, tools
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Quicker, Better, Faster for work. Stuff to do to my house, the cobbler's kids go shoeless, I kinda always have stuff I am doing or wanting to do to this place. What project, other than the house, I need or want to work on. The world, I listen to a lot of news radio. If there is a big event coming up I spend time making plans for that.
On a typical Friday night I am
just depends, I am self employed, so some times I have more time off than other times. Could be having tea, and heading to bed, at the pub with beer, or out checking out the stars off China Hat.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
not really anything. You will have to get to know me.

You should message me if
You should message me if you are slightly interested, I am not looking for anything serious to start out with. I would just like to go out for tea or a beer and meet people. If we click and want to go again then fine. If we don't that is fine too, maybe we will see each other at a show and be able to expand our group of friends.
