A little about me...
Are first impressions everything, as Malcom Gladwell writes in Blink? If so, how do I give a good one? By giving a snapshot of my weeks activities? What I did versus what I wish I had done? I flew on an air ambulance flight to save someones life. I drove to the coast to improve mine.I reinforced the fence around my garden to the disgust of my horses who hate to be ignored. I am in finals in school, I worked in ICU. All of these things I love to do. I love my life. I live on 300 acres, have horses and raise chickens. I love my job as an ICU RN and flight nurse. I love school and plan to continue on for my Masters and possibly PhD.

I have a sense of humor and am a terrific cook and love gourmet food. I love to read. I always stand up for the underdog. The thing that is important to me is that I am kind. I am a quick thinker and very intelligent and am never mean to those who are not. I love to hunt (bow and rifle). I have taught hunting for the ODFW in the Becoming An Outdoor Woman program. I love introducing women to hunting and fishing. I love to scuba dive in tropical waters. I have traveled in the US and Canada and Mexico and love it.

What are you looking for in a partner?
It is important to me that my partner intrigues me, stimulates my mind and captures my heart before we move on to the physical. I have a sensuous side and am an enthusiastic lover with a healthy libido. I am looking for someone who is neither controlling nor needing to be led, but an equal with whom I can share my most intimate thoughts.
Not a gold digger, or a paycheck.

I'd just like to add...
favorite hot spots:
RiverPlace in Portland for gourmet weekends sprinkled with a visit to Powells. I love drives to the mountains or the coast. Seattle at night... No crazy bar scene, prefer riding my horse over that. Love a fire and catfishing/crawdaddin at night.

favorite things:
Reading good books, gourmet cooking/food.My favorite movies are Amelie and Dancer in the Dark. Filet mignon, fresh seafood. I love to travel. Gardening, cooking/cannning what Ive grown. I like massages, kindness, wit and humour and thunderstorms
