I am a special education teacher and have a 2nd job working with telescopes at an observatory. I spend many late nights at the observatory watching the night sky and taking awesome pictures of the cosmos. I am blessed that I am in a position with my careers to help with important things that matter to others and still dream about the big universe-sized stuff. My 3 daughters mean the world to me. They are at the point where their adult lives are beginning to shine, and it is time for me to once again do the same. I am a nerd. I love Star Wars, rock and blues music, most things Texan, wide open spaces, dark skies and the occasional bourbon. I am looking for a woman to watch meteor showers with as they fly across the sky or fireflies blink on and off as they zip about at night. Someone to find new coffee shops or take a quick daytrip to a small town just because we've never been there before. If any of this, all of it, or most of it sounds appealing to you, then let’s meet at your favorite out-of-the-way coffee shop. If you don’t have one I do. If a first date of interesting conversation, and looking forward to looking up at beautiful skies together sounds like a lovely idea, then let’s make it happen.
