More about me

Fifty-two year old one time husband, father of two, good friend of a few. I am college educated, lower 49 states travelled and a currently non-active, born and raised, Catholic. I like dogs, not cats. Enjoy reading, Sudoku and crosswords puzzles, minimal television viewing. Enjoy college sports, not pro sports. Enjoy cooking in together or dining out, so I work out 2 or 3 times per week to support that vice. I am fascinated by people, watching, mingling, listening and motivating. I thoroughly enjoy my management position from which I have no 'concrete' plans of retiring. I am as comfortable with vacations in crowded and active places as I am in an intimate and quiet setting. Overall I thoroughly enjoy life with all of it's twists and turns and ups and downs.

Activities

I love my family members and enjoy watching my children grow through life's experiences. I truly enjoy the people that I work with and so I look forward to going to work. Otherwise, I am a people watcher. I am fascinated with people and their reactions to various situations.
