More About Me
Does Honest, Outdoorsy, Intelligent, Educated and wanting kids sound good? If so read on. I enjoy anything outdoors. Backpacking, canoeing, and traveling tops my list. I've spent 8 months last year sailing a sailboat from Ohio to Florida. I've recently bought a larger sailboat and maybe planning a trip around the world, first a couple months in the Bahamas, then up the east coast to Nova Scotia. Then maybe a right turn and head for the Mediterranean. All this started with a 13 foot sailboat from a yard sale while in college and then a dream of sailing my own boat to the Caribbean. Dreams, what would life be without them, if you stop dreaming you might as well stop breathing. Want to share some dreams and make some memories?
Most everything I've got is paid for now, so money is not a real problem. I can't say I've got lots, but enough. Time is what is always short, and I do what I can to maximize the use of my free time. I am originally from New Jersey, but now I live on and own 20 acres near Tuttle Creek Lake. Relocation is possible. I know I can be happy just about anywhere, But it would be hard to leave what I've got here, good job flexibility, great location, big lake, lots of trees, deer munching my flowers in the yard (oftentimes really good comes with some bad), wild turkeys in the woods (most of the rest of the "Turkeys" live 10 miles away in town :-), good pasture, no mortgage, and it's been home for more than a few years. I spent three months in Alaska, backpacking, canoeing, kayaking, mountain biking etc. Then I went back for another month in the late fall, early winter. My sister was living up there at the time, and I helped move her and her two children to Minneapolis. Traveling 4000 miles in 8 days with a 1 and a 3 year old, I learned a lot. I still want kids. I love to dance, CW, 2step, waltz, western swing, polka, travel and enjoy life. I'm great with kids, I have none and do want some, life isn't complete without them. Jon Held jheld MTBKPKR
More About my Match
"We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because, we stop playing." Can you come out and play ? I ENJOY life, Could you make it WE?
Since I can, I spend a lot of time traveling, normally on a budget, travel by car, taking along some toys like kayaks, bicycles and snowshoes. It would be great to find someone who also has the ability and mindset to join me in continued travel but I do understand that kids and responsibility can come first. I'd love to have that responsibility. I definitely want kids, adoption or a surrogate mom is a possibility, but I'm not going to do it alone, it's family that's important.
Your probably thinking "If he's so great why's he still single?" Wish I could answer it myself. I think I needed the internet 10 years ago. The few that I met were in their mid 30's with kids and wanted nothing to do with a relationship until they got the kids grown. They'd been hurt by the liars a couple times and had given up till they could devote more time to the selection process.
In Amateur radio I'm n0ryq. I'm 51, I hate to lie but the right women don't find me and having kids is too important to not lie. When I had the ad at 50 I spent all my time telling older women that I really do want kids, this cuts that down a little. Really I'm 38 with 13 years experience, (I'm like a well maintained 15 yr old Lincoln Mk7, which just happens to be what I drive, when I'm not driving one of my sports cars or Pickups, economical, sporty, and stylish in a classy package.) Non smoking is a must; it goes with caring for yourself first. I believe in forgiveness, life is too short to waste it being mad. I'm one of the most honest people you'll ever meet, and I expect honesty from my partner (you can lie about surprise parties and such). It's the only way to build any relationship. It's probably why I'm still friends with just about every woman I've ever dated. Have a great day, SMILE, it is contagious, someone will catch it. Jon Held jheld mtbkpkr
Ethnicity
I was brought up with church as an important part of my life. I do believe in God because science doesn't explain everything. I live by the golden rule and wish everybody else did. I believe that church does play an important role in raising children
Education
I've got a B.S in physics and a M.S. in Mech. Engg., A PhD is just about done. My most recent research involved fiberglass highway bridges. My work has often won International recognition. I've worked on grain dust explosions and astronaut gloves.
Religion
More on religion, I have problems with accepting organized religions and the fact that most of them are intolerant of other religions. Nobody really knows what's right. Some think they do.
Occupation
I've taught engineering at the University for many years. First in Pysics then almost every undergrad class in Mechanical Engineering, Now I teach one class in Electrical Engineering each spring.
