Hi it�s me John. I want to thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Trying to describe one�s self objectively is a daunting task to say the least but here goes. I was born in Milwaukee and lived there happily with my parents, sister and Coco the poodle until I ventured further off to Glenwood Springs, Colorado for College. After four years of school and skiing in what is arguably one of most picturesque towns, I moved to Burlington, Vermont. While in Vermont, I was able to combine my passion for skiing with meaningful employment! I worked for the �lan Ski Company for 4 yrs. As much as I enjoyed that position, the traveling was extensive and truth be told I found myself missing my family with whom I�m very close to. Since we�re �mountain free� in Wisconsin, I was able to combine another favorite pastime of mine, boating, with a position at Skipper Buds. A great summer day for me would be spending the afternoon with family and friends pontooning and uttering the words �it�s 5 o�clock somewhere�. Creating terrific memories with my children, teaching them to fish and water-ski, is one of the greatest joys in my life. The one thing that would truly complete my life would be the opportunity to share some time with a special woman whose values and sense of fun and adventure are close to my own. Ask yourself, can you handle a �cave� man who�d rather watch the Packers than see MammaMia, (though I could be bribed with a home cooked meal). I�m not the metro sexual who wants to go to the mall and I�ll never get a �mani/pedi�. I�m the guy who wants to take you to see a good band, have a nice meal, great conversation and we�ll keep smiling at one another thinking of just how lucky we both are to have found one another. If the weathers nice or not, I�d rather be outside doing just about anything with the exception of hunting, Bambi is safe around me. I�d rather walk, bike, run, skate, hike, ski, kayak, snorkel or best of all, fly a kite with my kids.
