caring, humorous, positive, energetic, sneaky.

First, thank you for taking the time to read my post. Short and sweet is what I like about women's ads, so I will try to follow suit. I recently turned and it's still hard to even say. 5'10", 195, (actually dropped several pounds since joining the Fire Academy but gained it all back in EMT school) black hair (omigosh...are those...GREYS!?!?), and brown eyes. I like cooking (especially the grill), wine (especially vintage ports), photography (just got a fancy new camera) and the outdoors. When I say outdoors I mean all types, but backpacking is the best...last few trips were Colorado Bend State Park in TX and a couple mountains: Blanca Peak and Humboldt Peak in Southern Colorado. When I return I feel cooped up inside. I wrecked my mountain bike city riding last year while looking over my shoulder to see that my dog was still with me, and broke my arm, so, although I healed fine I haven't been on the bike in a while... :P This New Year I am focusing on getting into shape, not just "Average", but FIT...I am nearing 40 in a year, and have resolved to be "WOW, THAT guy!" rather that "Ungh, THAT guy." I have friends that run triathlons ( I have a great podcast for ya if that's your thing) and just sitting near them makes me feel slovenly. That said, I am looking to meet someone fun, funny, attractive; someone who likes animals (I have a dog, cat, and fish...all rescues, yes, even the fish), and someone who will like to do physical activities and enjoy the outdoors (no, I am not camping every weekend, I usually plan a trip or two a year), be it biking, walking, skating, even geocaching (dork factor just jumped a level). I prefer non-smokers, but can deal with light smoking. I smoked for 15 years and quit one day when I decided I was done...you'll quit when you want to. I can help with that, too, if ya like.
