Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Libra.
Looking for: man. In age: 52-62
I'm a happy, balanced single girl that is as real as it gets. What you see here is exactly what you will see in person.My passions are wilderness backpacking, kayaking, and camping in the mountains near a stream or lake. Fly fishing, (for the longest time, I thought this was the ONLY right way to fish, right?!). I love gardening, art, reading, crafting...I enjoy learning new things, Saturday markets full of fresh veggies, country music (all kinds of music) and FUN, happy people...I'm not a serial dater, in fact I haven't been dating for over two years now because I wanted to take a break and do some other things that I really enjoy doing...things that are on my ever growing bucket list. So, YES...it will take a bit of conversing before I say yes to a first date. Looking for that certain someone for me isn't about jumping at the first invite and going through a ton of coffee dates until something sticks. Why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary? Looking for a long term relationship to me is an investment in time and energy. Getting to know you here is a part of the process. Talking on the phone is part of the process. Meeting for the first time is...going to be exciting and well worth all the time it takes to get there. (you thought I was going to say, part of the process, right?) lol!On another note...I love the smell of my man just after he's taken a shower, that soapy fresh scent is so sexy. I love the look in his eyes when something touches the very depth of his soul; and he need not say more. I miss getting ready for work in the mornings, sharing the bathroom, drinking coffee; starting the day together. The laughter only WE share because we get something no one else does (It's what makes us just about perfect as a couple). I enjoy it when my man takes my hand in his...anytime...for no reason other than to indicate that I am HIS sweetheart. He knows that a single flower can make my heart melt faster than a dozen roses can and one sweet kiss can equal a thousand words... I'm on meetville because I am looking for someone that isn't like everyone else. Someone that stands out a bit from the usual "Let's do coffee" crowd. Shouldn't a first date be something out of the ordinary and not the mundane? Something more than coffee in a crowded coffee shop filled with business people doing the same thing? Shouldn't it be our first opportunity to make a great impression? Ideas? museums, art galleries, antique shops, a local dive that really isn't and serves great food, wine tasting, city tour routes, hoola hooping in River Park Square...well, maybe not that, I am not very good at it. LOLFeel free to be creative...take the time to make an impression. It could be a lasting one and the beginning of something pretty darn terrific..

This is the short version:I love to kick back with a glass of wine or pint of beer or forge ahead into the great outdoors. I'm a paddler and have my own canoe. I love adventuring in the city or out. I am a cat lady though dogs are cool too (and kids).I like midnight swims, spring showers, cooking over an open fire, dinners with friends, jeans and sweaters, good food, ice-cream, strong coffee (and 5 minute steeped tea). I like badminton, movies, books, dancing, singing, gardening, kissing, hiking, camping, feeling the wind against my face and the crunch of snow under my feet. I like to howl at the moon but I'm sometimes shy and need a push. Other times I light up a room.This is the longer version:I wanted to keep my profile short but perhaps I need to speak more to who I am and what it is I'm looking for. Perhaps this will narrow the responses I get...I only need one.I'm not lonely. I like where I'm at in my life. I like what I do, the things I've discovered about myself and the roads I've traveled down. I have a great family and a wonderful and ever growing group of friends. If I find someone to hold hands with ...well, that would be lovely and that's why I'm here.I want that special feeling that two people have when they look at each other across a crowded room. It's cliche, but it works.We need to be on the same page when it comes to humour. There's no hope if we can't make each other laugh. I can be silly, the clown, witty, dry, sarcastic or just cute and goofy. If you can make me laugh you will win my heart. I hope that's how I will win yours.Dancing. I love to dance. If you dance like a crazy ass punk rocker than we may be perfect for each other. This is not a prerequisite. It would just be nice.I almost didn't put relationship because it puts so much pressure on that first meeting. Or maybe even more so on the next which would really be our first date. The first meeting is really to see if we're on the same page or at the very least, the same chapter. And see if there's an attraction.It's important. Attraction. For women it's not necessarily how good looking you are. It could be your words, your confidence, your shyness or boldness. It could be your love of the outdoors or the way you smile. I like earnestness. I like handy men. I like soul. I like someone that isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. I like passion both with me and for the world. You needn't be vocal about your love of people and the earth. You just need to have it. It's important to me that your political views lean more to the left. I work-out because I have bad knees. I don't have a drop dead gorgeous body. I work-out so I can do the things I enjoy and not kill myself. I like to relax. I'm pretty laid back and so not high energy. I simply like to do a lot of different things. This doesn't mean I have an insurmountable amount of energy. In fact I need my down time. I'm not always good at communicating my feelings but I think it a very important part of keeping a relationship healthy. I like discussion. But I don't think we need to fill all the silence with words either. We all deserve respect and kindness. If we meet, let's keep it simple and easy and maybe at the very least have some intelligent conversation and a few laughs.I'm pragmatic. It's the journey, not the destination. Ok...the destination is good too!Yikes - That's one freakin' long profile. :) Let's meet and take it from there.
