Bio: I am an optimist who prefers to look at the glass as half full. I know, life can sometimes hand you the unexpected but I look at that as a learning experience. I love life and all it has to offer. I love learning new things and exploring new area's. Did I mention I love to travel? I have learned over the years that I am the only one who can make me happy. I am not looking for someone to complete me, but someone to walk beside me. I am emotionally secure, own my home, have pets who truly know what unconditional love is and try to live each day to the fullest and stay in the moment. I enjoy being outdoors and staying active. I love playing golf although my score doesn't reflect it. I love nature and consider it a sanctuary. Taking walks with my dogs, photography and bicycling are more favorite pastimes. I am an avid women's basketball fan and enjoy most sports. I am not into games or drama. Life is simply too short. I admire honesty, integrity and open communication. These are necessities in any kind of relationship. What I am looking for: friends, first and foremost. People who are relatively sane, know, accept and love themselves and enjoy spending time with friends. I love to laugh so a good sense of humor is a plus! Drop me a line if you want to know more. Oh yeah, I am an animal lover and can't imagine my life without some 4-legged buddies around.
