About Me

I travel A LOT for work, related to geology...all over the world. I enjoy working with my hands: massage, woodcarving, metalcraft, ceramics, building earth friendly homes... I'd love to be hiking, swimming, camping or rock climbing. How about hanging out on a beach in... Australia or Nicaragua or Belize. I live for racing anything that rolls, flies or goes across water or snow. I like getting to know people well...the real you, behind that facade you always show everyone else. I'm always looking for beautiful sunrises, sunsets and the fun times that lie all the way around and in between. I pause to think in the quiet times, and I don't believe every lull in a conversation is waiting to have a word put in it. Silence is when discovery happens. I can learn more about you by looking you in the eye than I can in an hour of bullshit make believe conversation at a loud party. I'm absolutely loyal and I'm brazenly honest. If I'm not having fun, you can bet I'm PLANNING to have fun soon.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who like adventure! People who are confident. People who are so much deeper than one-liners and fake smiles. People who don't live their lives by rules or standards set by someone else. People who are only religious on Sunday or for special occasions. People smart enough to investigate things for themselves instead of relying on someone else's politically or religiously slanted dogmas. Just because someone yells the loudest doesn't necessarily make them right. I enjoy articulate people.
