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.

    I am a girl who loves God. (that is not a weird thing). I love to laugh and have fun withmy special someone. No baggage please. My man needs to be sure of himself and knowwhat he wants in a woman. (me, of course). My passions lie around helping others. I stay in greatshape and feel good. (dogs, that is)I enjoy good fine dining, a great glass of wine, listening to music and going to concerts. I love family and children.I am not a player and do not want to waste time with someone who is looking for a one night stand.I am very social but can take in a good movie or sit by a cozy fire. If you are a Hopeless Romantic, letstalk. First dates are sometimes awkward, so I like to keep it simple. A good cup of coffee or a nice glassof wine.

    I'm just a small town gal, who is looking for (someone that gets my sense of (Seinfeld) humor and likes my smile. I love to tease and laugh. I have a big heart and a lot to offer the right person. When I am in love, I only have eyes for that man. Please-NO SMOKERS....I'm very sorry, but it's a deal breaker for me. I've had two friends pass away recently from lung cancer. Another turn off....guys with brown teeth, ugh. I enjoy movies, cooking dinner and just hanging out with someone I have great chemistry with. I love all kinds of music, wine tasting, working out, cooking, reading, creating art and quilts and playing with my dog. It all comes down to chemistry-no matter how well we write, how we sound on the phone, you have to meet and see if you understand each other without saying a word. :) What ever we decide?? :)
