About Me

I love the beach, especially the Gulf Coast of Florida. Key West is my favorite vacation destination in the Spring. I love to cook and have my own herb garden most of the year. I love Great Danes! They are such awesome dogs. I enjoy road trips, exploring the unbeaten path. I love picnics by the water whether it be Great Falls, Annapolis, a river in West Va, Point of Rocks, or Haines Point. Waterfalls! I love stimulating conversation and making people laugh. Good restaurants, Sushi, Jumbo-lump crabcakes, Thai food, Home cooking on the stove, oven or on the grill. Having people over and enjoying the hot tub- alone or with others. Halloween! I always dress in one of my costumes. Pinot Grigio, Miller Lite or Absolut vodka. Native American Indian culture, the Druids, Stonehenge.Myspace Layouts + Myspace Graphics

My 3 kids, My 2 Great Danes, My 1 SUV. Eagles football, Herb gardens, cooking, fairies, road trips, spring vacations in Florida, The MD Ren. Festival...

I'd like to meet:

People who are sincere and honest about who they are. People who are carefree and fun. People who love to explore and take the time to appreciate the wonder of the world, the beauty of a sunset, the never-ending, awsome power of the oceans coming to shore, the stars, wildflowers, the joy of having a dog that loves you. People who realize that their opinions are not necessarily always right, perhaps only different from others.

Music:

Country, New Age, Celtic Music, Soft Jazz, 60's and 70's.

Movies:

Braveheart, Gladiator, Elizabeth, Walking Tall, Man on Fire, Saw, Hide and Seek, Seven, Castaway, Forrest Gump, I am Sam, Silence of the Lambs and it's sequels, Kiss the girls, Ray, The Shawshank Redemption, Sling Blade, Phantom of the Opera.

Television:

Court TV, Law and order, Medical mysteries, National Geographic, Discovery and Discovery Health, the Sci-Fi channel, American Idol, Cooking shows, CNN.

Books:

Angels and Demons, The DaVinci Code, Stephen King, James Patterson, Dean Koontz, Sue Grafton, Nora Roberts, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Anne Rice

Heroes:

First and foremost-my Dad! I still miss him and wish I knew more of his stories about the "good old days" and WWII. Everytime I hear "Wind beneath my Wings", I think of him. He was strong but often quiet, in the background. I'd like to think that I have his strength.
