I am widowed,with three kids, and three grandchildren. My youngest is in college, so I have an empty nest. I love traveling, also love going to Renaissance Festivals. I enjoy reading, and cooking on the grill. I am kind of shy at first. I believe everyone has baggage to some degree,it is how we carry that luggage/baggage that matters in life. Hence my headline looking for a slightly tarnished knight. :) I enjoy people watching, and reading, I want to take up painting, canvases, not walls, though I do paint walls and have painted many in this lifetime so far. I have a good sense of humor. I love watching movies of all kinds. I do have a collection of Renaissance Era movies. I also have a wide collection of books with authors ranging from Stephen King, John Saul, Dean Koontz, to Ted Andrews, Dan Millman to name a few. I also collect Tarot cards, the artwork on most of them are really amazing. I enjoy listening to almost all types of music and recently have discovered the vocal group Celtic Thunder. The voices in this group are fantastic. One of my favorite singers is Peter Gabriel. If you are interested drop an email. Blessed Be and Namaste'
