I’m a really wonderful person - just ask me. I’m thoughtful, caring, compassionate, funny, easy-going, generous, … Did I mention funny? There; now that that’s out of the way: I’m a retired probate and trust lawyer. Well not so much retired as disabled. (Fortunately, I’m more financially secure that I was when I was working.) While surfing in December 2018, I was hit in the head by another’s surfboard and drowned. I was given CPR and resuscitated, but woke 6 days later with a C4-5 spinal fusion and a prognosis that I may never walk again. I’m very fortunate that the prognosis was incorrect - my spinal injury is not “complete” (like Christopher Reeve’s was). It is “incomplete,” which means I have use and control of my body, but the nerve damage was substantial and is slow to recover. I will always have noticeable effects and limitations, but I continue to make slow progress. I have always been an optimist and consider the glass half full. I often say, “It is what it is.” (If you know the fable about the White Horse, kudos to you.) For the first year I used a wheelchair, but I threw that aside (figuratively) as soon as I got use of my legs back. For the last almost 2 years now I have used a walker - though I’m really really slow, and it appears that I will need to use a walker for a long long time to come. I fight each day to make a little more progress, which is truly by the millimeter. What is most challenging is that I have limited functional use of my hands, but I continue occupational therapy and make slow progress there too. If you are still reading, you are either really bored or you otherwise have a soft spot in your heart for the crippled guy - a person who takes in strays. I grew up in Southern California. I got out of there as soon as they started putting in toll roads. I took a “vow of poverty” to stay in San Luis Obispo - where I have lived for the last 25 years, and have never regretted it for a moment. Before my accident, I was very active - always go-go-go: surfing, golfing, snowboarding, baseball and softball, backpacking and camping and hiking, travel, etc. Since my accident, well, … my world has gotten pretty small. Covid mirrored that as everybody’s world seemed to shrink by sheltering in place. I have a host of friends and a wonderful support group. I keep busy teaching law school online and working with other attorneys and former clients. I have always considered my life’s purpose - be it work or otherwise, to be helpful to others. My personal goal for as long as I can remember, though I have obviously fallen way way short, has been to try and help someone each day - but they cannot find out about it; if anybody finds out about it, it doesn’t count. (So I can’t tell you about the times when I did a good deed because then you would know and then it wouldn’t count.) I love binge watching Game of Thrones and Shameless. If you get Shameless, you get me. It is said that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. If so, I am witless. I see humor in everything. (If you don’t learn to laugh at yourself, you will miss the greatest joke in your own generation.) I always laugh and am exceedingly slow to anger. I am very much a “live and let live” kind of person. I do not watch the news, and I do not talk politics - even with people who agree. I consider myself Libertarian in many areas and think government is too big. There; that’s enough of that! I do not drink. I stopped many years ago because it was ruining my life. I hang out with lots of other people who don’t drink anymore either. It is a very fulfilling life and gives me great purpose to be helpful to others. But I of course absolutely do not mind at all others partaking - be it wine with dinner or letting loose on the weekend. I enjoy cigars and consider myself an aficionado. To one who does not smoke cigars, it is not enjoyable to be sure. But their development and creation is akin to winemaking; the various blends for a developed pallet are noticeably remarkable. And I gotta have my coffee. I have no children of my own but am now adopting (adult adoption) my 26-year-old stepdaughter who is truly the most amazing person I have ever known. The adoption will be completed in November 2021, and I will thereafter finalize my divorce. My (soon to be ex) wife was incredibly supportive during all of my accident and recovery. But it turned out that she, unbeknownst to me, had “left” our then-15 year marriage in 2017 -- a year before my accident. (Details intentionally omitted.) So what does the future hold? Who knows? I would think most people in the end want the same thing: a wonderfully compatible companion to share life’s ups and downs - - with emphasis placed on “compatible” and even more emphasis placed on “wonderful.” I don’t know if it is “unfortunate” (reference White Horse story) or not, but my future apparently does not include a lot of surfing, golfing, snowboarding, baseball and softball, backpacking and hiking, etc. It looks like for the remainder of my life I am relegated to being a spectator. So it looks like if I find that “wonderfully compatible companion,” it will be someone for whom these activities are not on the top of their to-do list, or at least with me keeping up. Fortunately though, travel can be a spectator sport, and so that is where I am putting a lot of my focus and energy. Well, that and I plan to learn to scuba dive. I have countless friends and acquaintances and am not looking for online chatting and correspondence. I’m not looking to casually date. Nor do I have a “need” to find a LTR. But I figured “what the hell”, I might as well look online and maybe - just maybe, there is some incredibly wonderfully compatible person out there at this moment. Someone who makes me want to drop everything and go to the ends of the earth to be with them and want to stay with them always; someone with whom I’m destined to share life’s ups and downs, whether that be here in California or wherever she lives - or maybe even in a bungalow in Costa Rica or Kauai? One never knows :-)

I am a tall drink of water filmmaker/professor from the GREAT state of N. Carolina who lived and worked in the ambitious wonders of Los Angeles, San Diego & central California and am now back in North Carolina and still occasionally traveling between the East and West coasts. I’ve been blessed with chances to see different places in the world [mostly the Middle East, Near East and Europe] and it has been a great adventure to be remembered. HOWEVER---just clean and simple---I long and search now for the next step in a Life journey—to find my Lifelong mate of adventure, endeavor and plain and simple good living. And with this vision—comes the clarity that such an impassioned and adventurous Life-together comes from sharing the celebratory and challenging parts together. Like with my soul mate seated close by me and me by her from here through our old age together. Doing things together like enjoying with her the pleasure of listening to Ray Charles on the dashboard transistor double-parked on a coastal highway in a top-down convertible with our or your cherished smiling child(ren) in the back seat as the sun graces to below the warm horizon. Or occasionally splurging for a weekend trip to Broadway in NY. Or cooking dinner and enjoying it afloat on a NC river. Or making a trip together to South America to enjoy that vibrant culture, especially during a time like Carnivale in Brazil. So much to do after we meet and find ourselves at first good and then great friends that merge hopefully and finally into a committed couple—like learning together to time the pasta without hardening the Brushetta, to dance well the heated Swing, to find and fix-up an investment home for our one day junior(s) to enjoy, to kiss in all languages anew (ah, gotta love the French), to build a fire on a Baja or Outer Bank beach, to travel to the China or Singapore [or where ever you want to journey] so to learn of the ways of other. Other places that would be great to travel would include Italy, India, Ireland and/or North Europe, all the while showing as many public displays of affection as possible. I'm looking forward to meeting your lovely self. I’m searching for an energetic, cares-about-the-world, enjoys the wonders of simple good times, healthy and attractive inside and outside woman. AND as many of the following that is humanly possible [hey---NO one is perfect, INCLUDING me]: She has been in the world and learned about herself and her strengths and wants to share her Life’s journey with a like-minded man. She might want or perhaps a child(ren) (whether our own, her's or adopted) and raise them with her partner to see the world as a gift and wonderful opportunity and energized responsibility to serve others. She likes to occasionally dance and is patient with someone who tries hard with sometimes 3 large sized-13 feet. She too follows her passions (no matter how small or large) and not just her wallet---although financial smarts are handy to all. She likes camping and weekend getaways, good music of all kinds. She has found her own work and passion in her own Life. She has faith in human kind and spiritual callings (to whichever faith calls her). She also lives amongst and contributes to a vibrant community. She likes too to travel near and far and is fascinated with others in the world. She also is creative and entrepreneurial and will share with her mate (and me with her) her and his endeavors and projects. She believes that feminine and masculine beauty and power have MUCH more in common than in contrast. She loves to wake up in the morning and bounce in [ : ) ] and out of bed with anticipation. She has an appreciation for and love of the arts and of the extended family. She is comfortable in hiking boots as well as heels. She thinks that snuggling with her love during a big full moonrise popping over the horizon is just about the best invention ever.

I'm a guy who's a little rough around the edges. I like motorcycles and horses, and I ride both a lot. I love to make things go faster and I have a few trucks and a muscle car I'm proud of! I own a couple of each. I have long hair but if that bothers you, I can cut it! And I know I'm a little bit older but I work out every day by going to the gym and I run every day to unless it's raining. People say I look pretty young for my age. I'm self-employed so I work when I want to so that I can play whenever I feel like it, but I am very responsible when need be. The best way to describe my business is that I live in a rural area and people can't always get to town to buy things so they call me to build it for them. Log splitters for splitting firewood, or room additions on their house. Or maybe new cabinets in the home. All the woodwork I do is rustic and fitting for a log home. I also do stonework and brick and block. I'm very good with woodworking and stonework! I own my own property which I inherited when my mother passed away, so I am financially secure, and will alway's have a place to live and to die. I enjoy gardening and plant flowers every spring! I guess that's unusual for a guy. I am a cowboy who listens to hard rock and heavy metal music and used to ride bulls when I was younger. I still do every now and then for shits and giggles! I like the great outdoors and I have a couple of 4 wheel drive trucks that I use to race in mud holes and get dirty! I like camping and adventure and travelling. I think that life is meant to be lived, not just survived. If your going to just do that, then it's not really worth living and there's no point. I plan on doing a lot of travelling in the near future and have always wanted to visit China! I have greatly admired it's long history and culture and my first girlfriend was chinese so ever since then I've had great respect for the chinese people and their traditions! When it comes to women I think that it should be a man's duty from the time he awakens in the morning until the time he goes to bed at night, to do his best, first and foremost, to make his girl as happy as she can be, and if he can't, to be the shoulder she needs to lean on for strength, or to cry, and to share her tears and fears and to be there with her for all the good, the bad and the ugly parts of life that people go through. To share in her interests if she wants him to, (even if her interests bore him to tears), with a smile on his face and joy in his heart, because the important thing is that she is there with him, that's all.

You probably think all men are sex-crazed lunatics... and you're right ... but I'm something different. There's a lot more to life than just getting right to it. There's enjoying each others company, sharing experiences, talking and falling in love. There's a lot to be said for taking one's time. I'm educated, successful, cultured and intensely creative. I’m radically honest, which allows me to deeply bond with my partner. Care and effort, and above all, patience can turn the mundane into the extraordinary. I am well read, politically astute and intensely creative. Good books, art, music and culture are important in my life. I’ve studied modern dance, politics, economics and evolutionary astrology (I’m a Scorpio/Sagittarius cusp). My passion and profession involve fighting for those who are less fortunate, as well as to ensure the rights of all. I regularly commune with nature. Watching a sunset, hiking and taking a walk are regular activities. If you like doing anything outdoors, I'm usually up for it. And if you want to clear your head, join me…and let’s get a blanket and a bottle of wine and have a picnic by the water’s edge…or under the stars. I am interested in health and longevity. While I am not a full-fledged vegan, I definitely swing in the veggie direction. Juicing and eating healthy turn me on! I am very healthy…in all ways. I like late night conversations about astrology and higher consciousness. I believe that our thoughts create our realities and that our inner essence is basically good. As Marianne Williamson said, "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." (If you understand what I just said, then I definitely want to talk with you!) Finally, I am a man who wishes to give his deep love, his tenderness, his faithfulness and his reliability to one woman. I want to meet an extraordinary woman and become friends. If our chemistry is good, then I will ask her to join me in creating an extraordinary life together.
