About Me

My heart is on the trail between jagged, snow-capped peaks and rushing waters. Call me a determined optimist. I believe passionately in leaving a better world. I am spirited, smart, inquisitive, happily feminine, fit, passionate, and active. I’;Be joyful despite the facts." Among the identities I’ve worn and enjoyed are journalist, Congressional policy aide, and teacher. Being "mom" has been my most cherished role, and though that work is largely done, the pleasure of independent adult sons remains.For me, one kind of perfect day is a hike during the river roar of snowmelt just as tender lilies shoot up through the last glints of winter. I carry paper scraps and scribble notes for stories and poems. Then they go through the wash forgotten in my pockets but somehow, I remember key words. And pictures are indeed worth a thousand, so I *** clouds above tree line and between ridges. Share with me what brings awe to your life. I seek a co-conspirator for adventures, romance, comedy and laughter, delight, and trying on ideas. We all have tall wish lists. A few on mine: I want you to be smart, passionate, emotionally available, adventurous, kind, interested in personal growth, physically fit, and able to see the humor in life. Ideally, we are both lifelong learners. But not perfect ;-)I'm really looking for a best friend with whom I share playful, intellectual, physical and emotional chemistry. In my thinking, best friends do things together--apart, and sometimes separate things side by side. Though I can and do wear velvet gowns and enjoy a dressy night out--see photos, I'm most comfy in denim. I’m a passionate explorer and am hoping to meet someone with passions and experiences both similar and different than mine. There are many places and things I’ve yet to experience. For example, I'd enjoy learning to snowboard or ski. I am comforted standing next to glaciers that make me feel small. If you lose me on the trail, chances are I’ve found the perfect womb in an ancient tree to nest in.If you have a kayak or canoe, bonus points. If you can reteach me to flyfish or might learn with me, more bonus points. I adore being read to. Semi-sweet chocolate or a hand-picked bouquet will delight me. I love the city, too--plays, music, comedy, fine dining, etc. Yet if I had to choose between mountains and skyscrapers, I'd stop in the city on the way to or from the peaks. I can live in either the wilds or the city, and like to be reasonably close to both. Travel is a must here and there--that's part of the experience v. stuff.Being playful brings balance as I make my living with my head. Of course, all the usual apply. I cry at movies where the dog grows old and dies. You’ll find me enjoying all varieties of film, and I’m not above renting children’s movies that make me laugh. History fascinates me. I can root for the Seahawks win or lose. Good thing, huh?I’m very much a grown-up and still like stuffed animals that squeak. Though I'd love it if you lived next door already, I cannot be flexible on those four "chemistry" qualities, so I'm open to a wee bit of distance, as my work and life have some flexibility.--depends on cards in the next hand.I wish you the best. Let's chat about favorite people and journeys, walk and talk, and be ready for the possibility of magic. At the same time, I'm always open to new friendships--so "no pressure" on a first date is important.

    Woman. 53 years old. Zodiac sign: Aquarius.

    Looking for: man. In age: 50-60

    I'm hoping to meet someone i'm crazy about...just one last time. Hopefully he feels the same way and we become best friends. I love being outside so I set up a projector and white screen in my yard to watch movies at night. I love cuddling up with a blanket, popcorn, and a drink.I'm a curious mix of fun, laughter, intensity, creativity and a very loving heart. When a man knows how to make me happy, my eyes are only for him. I love adventures and surprises. I am comfortable cuddling on the couch at night watching a video or having romantic dinners out on the town. I love weekend trips together, cooking for each other, jetskiing, fishing, walks on the beach (who doesn't), and even camping. I find intelligence a very sexy quality. I love my family and love being in a healthy and quality relationship.I have a beautiful daughter that is in college. I spent the last 18 years making sure she was taken care of and now it's my turn :)Sometimes I just enjoy being alone to enjoy nature and reflect. I volunteer at the Wildlife Waystation and enjoy working with the animals. Scooping tiger poop can be very good for the sole...lolI know a relationship is right when I can be with that special person and not feel an awkward silence when the conversation slows. Let's start with a drink and see were it goes.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    I am a young 51 year old.....no rocking chair on the porch for this girl....yet. I’m looking for someone who share the same interests as me. Let’s start with a friendship and see where it goes from there. I have a great sense of humour and enjoy going out to dinner, movies, theatre, drives and spending time outdoors, especially in the summer. I also enjoy a quiet night in both of us preparing a meal, red wine and listening to music. My family is very important to me. I spend as much time as I can with my 2 beautiful daughters and other family members. I love to travel but haven’t had a chance to do much and hope to do some in the future."Either get busy living, or get busy dying.” - Shawshank Redemption.Hope to hear from you soon. Surprise me :o)

    Woman. 53 years old. Zodiac sign: Leo.

    Looking for: man. In age: 50-60

    I'm a gentle and caring person with a thoughtful demeanor. Although initially shy, once you get to know me you'll discover my humor and wit. Traveling is definitely one of my passions. I often like watching French movies and indie films. Also, cultural events are my idea of a great way to spend a weekend. I am a "news junkie" I like to be on top of current events, NPR is on for my drive to and from work. There are so places in the world I still want see and experience. How about you? I think a perfect first date would be a great conversation over a cup of coffee. It is all about the connection and the conversation with me.
