About me: ME? I am honest. You'll notice this if you read on. It's a core value. It is a rare thing called Honor.
I am a retired military officer, educated with a couple of degrees (one advanced), flew go-fast jet fighters, worked Public Relations, intelligent, in great health and shape, self sufficient and supporting emotionally AND financially. I keep myself physically fit, stay active and have a honed sense of humor, along with a strong sense of values, morals and ethics. Essentially...a decent human being (remember those kind?). I have lived life, shared a distant past for twenty years with a woman I married and raised two daughters: I know how to give. I’ve traveled and my Life has been an adventure. I’ve not been ”held down” in the least, so I do not need to Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! now that I’m in my “Junior-Senior” years. I don’t need to catch up on lost time or a lost life. I enjoy photography, writing, driving, (soon, a Harley), the ocean, relaxing and being active in beautiful settings. There are so many places of beauty to visit in our own country. I was born, visited and lived in Europe. I’ll leave it to the Europeans. And I adore women, the most stunning and beautiful creatures in the Universe! And oh yes.......Have an outrageous sense of humor. "Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Cry.....and you're just peeing into the wind!" And my "glass" is always half empty. That's because I'm constantly drinking from it...and it keeps me voraciously participating in life trying to fill it up. I’ll be back from Iraq in a matter of a few short weeks. Looking for an emotionally GROWN UP lady to build a life with. Many people in our age group are just getting older. But I keep working on just getting better. I climb towers in this war zone, and suspend myself from cables while working in the 120+ degree heat. I've matched my stamina and energy against thirty something youngsters and left them in the dust. Not bragging. Just the way it is. Hugs to all.
I'm looking for: Someone who has lived Life but has not become jaded by it. Self supporting financially without a boatload of emotional baggage. A woman who takes pride in grooming and personal appearance and doesn't mind flaunting it. Not looking for a fanatic chasing youth but rather pursuing the offerings and potentials of the future, and views sensuality as a really good thing. An eventual partner for the on-going adventure of Life. And now, as an update, since the internet is being cooperative, I have less than one month left of this self imposed challenge. An incredibly long eleven and a half months, but the personal growth and learning curve has been tremendous. One learns to endure, then persevere, and finally achieve. Or perhaps I've just been fortunate. And another revelation I stumbled across: I'm looking forward to buying a Harley when I get to West Palm. Life will be wonderful, and as long as I stay out of Miami, hopefully there won't be too much shooting. I'm somewhat maxed out on those adventures. Sincerely looking forward to meeting someone to share the ride with.
