Bio: I AM NOT LOOKING FOR HOOKUPS, CYBERSEX, or VIDEO CHAT. I am looking to date with intention of finding a partner. if your looking for random sex, please move on. me? a nice guy with old-fashioned values, living a quietly creative life in a charming mountain village in upstate NY, a few hours northwest of NYC. As self-employed artist and artisan, I have a small shop and studio on Main Street where I plie my trade, while I live in the apartment above with my two rambunctious pups, Scooter & Scout. ~ ~ ~ speaking of pups, while I've always considered myself a teddy bear, I've been called a 'puppy' for most of my life. now, at 52, having tried on most other suits and found them wanting - butch, jock, clone, whatever - I've decided to give in and just go with the one I was handed from the start. . . so. . .here I am, a playful pup with a lab's good nature, a rottie's big heart and a pit bull's devotion, looking to share his world and explore new ones. like most pups, I tend to be exuberant and excited, ready to jump right in, always looking to push my boundaries, but also, like Pavlov's dogs, I've been burned often enough to be a little shy around strangers and am pretty cautious about where I sniff. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ if you already have a partner, don't expect anything, regardless of whatever understanding you may have with your mate and I'm not into b&d, s&m, ws, ff or pretty much anything else that can be initialed or needs a code to understood. just think vanilla, everyone's favorite flavor. ~ ~ ~ bearhugs from the catskills, kelly ps: I don't live in Middletown, NY, but Narrowsburg,NY, about an hour west of Middletown.
