I have not verified my account because that requires Pay Pal. I used Pay Pay for an online purchase, believing it guaranteed me some protection. It did not. I never received the item I purchased, and the scammer emptied my bank account. So no, I no longer have Pay Pay.

Full disclosure - I am living in an assisted living facility right now, so I'm not a very attractive dating partner. All thanks to an accident. But I am making great progress, especially for a guy who was supposed to be bedridden. I worked hard and now go for walks in the woods.

I can no longer exercise and do heavy physical labor so my only real way to stay in shape is watching my diet. Where I used to be 6'1" and 204 pounds of muscle, I am 5'10" and 180 pounds of no muscle. That's the best I can do. I hope to make daily walking my exercise routine.

I am considered witty, humorous, compassionate, and intelligent. By whose scale, I don't know. But I'll run with that.

I am a retired businessman.

I see that all women seem to want to travel. It is only right to tell you that I am all traveled-out. i don't care if I never see the inside of an airport again. I now prefer local trips.

In my retirement years, I've redirected my blog and magazine writing to authoring books, currently with seven books published and working on my eighth. I stopped when the pandemic hit. I am not in my happy writing place.

I am also a photographer. I especially enjoy nature and candid portrait photos.

I was a boater. I cruised and raced sailboats for forty years on the Great Sacandaga Lake in upstate NY. I then cruised my 46' trawler down the eastern seaboard for three years. From Connecticut, to Albany, to below Jacksonville. What a trip!

If you are a Trump Conservative please don't contact me as we do not share the same values. I value honesty and intelligence. I am also looking to leave the US proper because of its recent conservative regressive policies, particularly towards both guns and women The Equal Rights Amendment has never been ratified, and women have no federally protected right to choose.

I am looking for a woman who would like to exchange messages first. If something comes of it, great. I am open to moving to PR (on my own, not with you) to visit in person. Whether a relationship works out or not, PR I will stay. An honest woman who enjoys the simple things in life but who also enjoys going out once in awhile. Someone who never considers herself too old to learn something new. And believe me, I have a few stories to tell that will defy what you thought you knew about the world we live in. Things are not what they seem to be.

If you're looking for an honest man who respects relationships, who you can talk with, who you can trust, and who has a dry wit, here I am.

I love animals. All animals. But pit bulls, especially, can grab my heart strings. And goats. If you have any, it's a plus. :)
