I am a 47 year old man, I have a wonderful partner, a bear for sure, living on the East coast of Central Florida. I'm a graduate of The Florida State University, Class of '90, with a BA in the Humanities; also have my AA and AS in Business Management. I attended The Universitat Konstanz, in Germany in the Summer of 1985. I've done some traveling in my day and have seen much and not all of it good. All of these experiences have made me the man you see before you today.( I could tell you stories that would make your hair curl) I have a 3 yr old Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Toby who is a handful, but he's the happiest dog I've ever seen! Not a mean bone in his body!! lol I consider myself an amateur photographer and maintain artist profiles on here and on [link] I've lived in Georgia, Florida, Massachusetts, and Vermont...

I am President of my Condo Association which can be a real drag at times and fun at others...it's mostly a drag though it seems anymore. I own a condo in an older complex that sets on the 16th Tee of the Royal Oak Golf Course and Resort here in town. Lovely views and a few wild animals too; lots of types of birds, turtles, gators, and an occasional Otter pass through our little pond! I LOVE to take pictures with my Canon PowerShot G9, mostly of nature and the life in it, but also really dig architecture and look for the odd pics too.

I dig coffee and coffee shops, hanging out with my friends, and good conversation. My friends are my extended family and I appreciate and love them very much. Friends, true ones, will stick with you forever. I take daily walks and do some minor weight exercises with my dumbbells. Since January of 2008, I've lost 73 lbs and dropped 5 pants sizes so far! :D I like strolls on the beach or back country roads, in a nice forest, or in the moutains.

I am a completely hopeless (and seemingly hapless) romantic for sure and can be very naive, gullible. and at times VERY FOOLISH, but always honest. I strongly believe in Monogamy and devoting my attention to my partner, myself, and 'us.' I've been around that proverbial 'block' a few dozen times and yet, still remain hopeful, positive, and believing in Love and my dreams. I am an extrovert who likes to keep to himself if that makes any sense?! (would that make me an introverted extrovert?) I'm easily approachable and friendly, but I dislike posers, players, and liars too..no time for that crap in my life. Our time here is relatively short and wasting it on folks who don't care about you is a shame. We should all be so lucky (and blesssed) to be surrounded by folks who love and care about us. As the saying goes..... "Don't make someone a Priority if they're only making you an Option"
