wildlife artist, retired nurse. Love to travel, lots of hobbies and interests, art, nature and birdwatching, scrapbooking, sewing. Raised in the country,I'm easygoing and friendly, non-smoker, very light social drinker, not into bar scene, more a child of nature. Always like to meet new people, like to find travel companion for Europe/UK countries. I like scenic countryside (not into city tours much) and mountains. Went to Ireland Sept. 06 and absolutely loved it,best vacation ever. Love Hawaii.
