Hi, I am happy to consider myself a Florida cracker - of 4th generation. I am energetic, very talkative, and consider one of my strengths of character to be my loyalty. By profession, I am a special education teacher. My passions are my two grown children, my 3 year old granddaughter and extended family. I love to be outdoors, doing most anything; in the woods, gardening, and collecting rocks. I love the water - swimming, boating, walking in a stream, and fishing. It gives me pleasure to shop antique and junk shops and mingle with and observe people in different settings. Like festivals and animals, building a fire, and a glass of wine in a bubble bath. I respect those who are devoted to family, church, community, and country. I am an environmentalist, almost a tree hugger, yet I appreciate the hunter - my son for one. I'm most comfortable in my yard, in grubby clothes, but I like to get dressed up and experience the world. From this service I hope to meet a man, without pretense, to share some fun adventures and have good conversation and laugh a lot. I am merely seeking someone who represents himself honestly and is accepting and caring. Hopefully, I will acquire some new friends!
