Date men and women from United States / Colorado / Manitou Springs, 40 year old

Date single man from Colorado, United States. Here is just a little about me.
"Update, as of Mid August I will be in WY hiking to and then through the Colorado Trail. I will not be available for quite a while. :) During this time my subscription will still be in effect and then lapse but I will not be anywhere to look at it. I am only taking a GPS tracking system with phone service. Still looking for someone amazingly beautiful, kind, and has a love of the outdoors, family, honesty, and is not afraid to express her opinions. I have not met the right person for me, my very adventurous lifestyle, and the moral's that I have. I have tried a couple different sites over the last year. Met a really good friend, but beyond that have only been getting messages from all the wrong women. I look young, live young, stay healthy, and love to actually live life to it's fullest while at the same time maintaining my integrity. I miss the family life and would someday love to be a part of that again. Until then... I'll just keep on traveling, playing, biding my time. I have a pretty care free life but that does not mean I am care free. Just trying to stay busy and content. I hate being singe but I will not compromise for myself or you. I don't want perfect, just real. A real great lover, a real beautiful smile, a real wonderful life to share with someone. I am resigned to believe this may not happen. But thanks for reading.
I love to cook.
I love to hike, bike, kayak, ski, ride, climb, fly, and so much more.
I build amazing custom guitars as a hobby.
I am honest, caring, and romantic.
I love kids. Teaching, playing with, guiding.
I love animals.
I'd rather be on the trails than wearing a tie (although I do clean up very nicely).
I'm responsible.
I am not a player, never have been, never will be.
Dramatic people need not apply. I like to smile, laugh, and love instead.
I am cut out for a family lifestyle that involves as much outdoor fun that can be fit into a day.
I am not controlling or manipulative or abusive.
I have not turned on my T.V. in nearly three weeks, I'd rather be playing, working, or building.
I am single and have been for nearly two years out of a very long relationship.
I hate being single. lol. But I do not settle for anything in my life. So, I am patiently trying to find someone compatible with me.
I would rather meet you in person than on the internet, but there are some really nice people out here too. So, I thought I'd give it a shot for a while. Just not what I expected at all. I read a lot of women are looking for someone like myself, but when it comes down to it, maybe not.
You:
Be nice.
Love children and animals.
Love outdoor activities
Be healthy, outgoing, romantic, affectionate, and be able to communicate your feelings freely.
Have a smile that melts my heart.
Best of luck to you and your search. Thanks for taking a minute to read my profile.

Meet someone special from Colorado, United States. I'm looking for someone with a great sense of humor, adventure, and a big smile to compliment your personality.
One of my great passions in life is music. I play in a band, so a mutual interest here would be ideal.
More to come...
