Adventurer who likes to backpack, bike, and hike. Drove out West for 6 weeks last fall and did two separate backpacking trips from the North Rim to the Colorado, mountain biked in the Maze district, and dayhiked In Capitol Reef NP, the North Rim, and outside Kanab UT. Drove back out West in March for four weeks to backpack on the Rainbow plateau in the Navajo Nation, dayhike in Bear's Ears NM, spend time in Albuquerque.

Exercise regularly to keep myself in shape...run 6 - 8 miles or bike 20 -35 miles most days. Trim 5'9" 162 lbs. Resting HR in the low 50s.

I also love live music (think Blue's Alley and the Newport jazz festival) and history/archeology museums. I own a nice TV set and sound system, but I cannot remember the last time I turned on the TV to watch news or a show.

I am friendly, kind, and considerate but not an extrovert. Most people find me approachable and amusing.
