In Her Own Words
About her
Life throws you lots of curveballs, so enjoying each day the best you can is my philosophy.
I love my rural life, gardening, mowing almost 5 acres, and running my semi-retirement little business on the farm.
After a lifetime career in Information Technology, it is fun to use my right brain skills and the physical activity required in my little business.
Travel to faraway places or charming little towns close to home, flea markets, antiquing, wine tastings, cooking and feeding people and staying at historic hotels are some of my passions.
At this point in my life, I am looking for a friend and a little companionship and taking some fun little adventures now and again.
Warning, I'm independent, had 8 older brothers so I'm not easily intimidated, will require you to give me 3 good references to any so called facts you use in a discussion (it's a teacher thing) and am a bleeding heart liberal. If that doesn't scare you...we could talk.
About her ideal match
Enjoys similar things that I do, looking for a travel friend who enjoys cooking, food, and good wine. Not really looking for marriage, just companionship... Deal breaker... a jerk and sorry Trump follower...
