I am back in Portland after many years and loving the city. I like to call myself a writer but I'm not quiting my day job (head cook). My vehicle of choice is my vintage Raleigh but I like my volvo too... yes, I might be a bit of a hippie but at least I don't eat tofu. I love being outdoors, camping, hiking, boating but i'm also down with hanging out on the couch and watching dodgy sci-fi. Soon I will figure out how to get my photos onto my computer but until then I hope the description provided by all the little boxes I checked earlier will do the trick.

I am looking for a man who is kind, gentle, and knows who he is, whoever that may be. I have a soft spot for facial hair and receding hairlines but no real "type" I can think of.
