Date someone special from Foresthill, United States. I am youthful and energetic. I am extremely genuine and love to laugh! I enjoy my career in education and have been graced by my son and daughter, now grown. My New Hampshire roots inspire me to golf and ski, and living in the foothills near lakes and trails is my peace and serenity. I enjoy photography, boating, and traveling. Hiking and swimming with my 3 year-old chocolate lab is a regular part of my summer lifestyle. I am now "empty-nesting", and want to find the special man who wants to matter in my life, and, he wants me to matter in his. Taking drives to Tahoe or to the bay and sharing a bite to eat at unique establishments is my idea of a good time. Conversation on the deck, cooking for friends, and playing cards with a gathering brings me ultimate joy! I am looking to be discovered! I have been a high school teacher for over 30 years, and I get along with all types of people. I want to meet the special man who likes to laugh and who appreciates mutual chemistry. If you enjoy the outdoors and the simple pleasures of affection and companionship, I believe I am the gem you've been looking for!
