I would describe myself as a gentle, patient, partner who can be intense / totally focused when involved with his work and pions. I love people in general and thrive on new environments. The Pacific Northwest is just this new environment for me, and i am looking to find / make new friends of the female type. I spent my entire life in Southern California and now i am developing property in the Central Oregon region as a second generation taxpayer .... HA! Building my home so i don't have to move until i am ready and i am ready to settle down. I engage in politics and love to hear / listen to others describe / explain / share their views. Let's chat, what do ya say? Skiing, Snowboarding, Surfing, Skateboarding have been my forte for decades and Golf is something i have come to enjoy as well. "Rusty" at all of the above would be an accurate description, to include dating. Drop me a line, i don't bite and i bet i can make you laugh. The internet is a great means to cut to the chase in finding someone who may want to play, in my opinion. I hope you feel the same. Talk wit' cha soon and let's do some exploring, bye for now, Miles of smiles 'til then. Oh, the winter is pretty harsh out here and early bird / morning person is what i am. If you are a night owl / late night person you may convince me to hang with you for a date or two but generally will find over time i will be much happier with someone who starts their day with a smile and a cup of coffee before the sun comes up.
