so does anybody have any dating success stories? One of those perfect romantic moments... one of those nights that you'll remember forever..."

Maybe this Saturday will produce one.

I finally got a haircut and had my beard trimmed so that I can shave. The "grandmother" and I are going out again Saturday night.

ok... ya know what? yeah, Dating sucks, i'm still waiting to hear from her, i hope things work out, i have no idea what's goin on.

I think i made her upset last night, so she left and wouldn't talk to me, wouldn't answer her phone, haven't heard from her since, that's not like her... but maybe i don't know her well enough, who knows... i don't think i even did anything wrong, as far as i can see...

I've given up on dating - can't find anyone that wants to go hiking and backpacking with me. The last few attempts at dating didn't work because I was busy hiking and backpacking.

wingding, I'm with you girl!

My last boyfriend had a bad back so of course he couldn't go on long hikes or backpacking. I hated that. It's hard when hiking is my favorite thing to do on the weekends. Where are those guys who are compatible with us? Where are they!
I think I'll be single my whole life that way I can go hiking and backpacking whenever my little heart desires.

Hey nowslimmer! Good luck on the date! Glad you cleaned up! :)

Thanks, hikerchic5. You're very kind. You sure look great in your pictures. Wish you were my date for tomorrow. You sound like a fun loving girl.

Tomorrow should be a ball. We'll be comparing canes, false teeth and operations.

But hey, if you're looking for someone with a strong back: During workouts, on the back extension I lift 240 pounds 18 inches 20 times in 20 to 30 seconds. That's more than most of the younger ones in my class can manage. I do four hours per week of stuff like shown in those pictures. And I still bp!

Hmmmmmmmm. [Thinking to self]
Maybe I should make a trip to northern Calif. to visit my son one of these days. What a dreamer.

does anyone remember the old days when if you tried to say a naughty word, a window popped up saying something like
'please refrain from using that language on TT'
wouldn't even let you post it
biz

6/13/03

Jeez, that sent me back to scanning my post to see what naughty word I said. Thanks.

No, that was before my time, biz. There appears to be scanner in use, but it is not perfect. There are various ways to get things through it and into the posts.

BTW, were those the good old days?

so, that went pretty well. Could have been worse, could have been better, but i had a good time.

I'm sure there will be a next time, and this time i'm planning it. lol, not that i didn't enjoy what we did, it just didn't seem organized... we spent a lot of time driving around and talking.

We went to the park and had DQ sat by the lake and walked through town a bit, it was alright - i enjoyed spending time with her, we'll see where this goes :)

No, I think she has some real problems. She usually wears a neck brace. In this Alzheimer's trailer park (my name for it), many of the people have problems. At least she remewmbered and called me.

There are no other immediate plans. She is leaving town Monday to visit off-spring in N. Calif. for three weeks. Before she returns I should be in GSMNP bp'ing for about four months. Well, what the hell, my datelife has been better with girls that I've met on the AT. It's time to start packing.

Her parents live here, too, a few blocks away. Kinda coincidental, I bought a car from her father several years ago.

Your right dating does suck. But at least you don't have a wife like I do. Man she really puts a damper on that scene. All I'm looking for is a sweet little mistress, nothing fancy and wam all I get is the elbow everytime I try.

RT -- you might want to fill in some user info so you won't be branded a troll quite so easily. Then put on your Kevlar and your Nomex underwear and jump right in.

There's a quote that springs to mind at times such as this....

"All you need to start an asylum is an empty room and the right kind of people."

If you're new, why do you feel that is obvious? Sounds to me like you've been around here for a while. BTW, All Trolls Day was yesterday, Friday the 13th.

It is possible that SirPete's wife knows all about TrailTalk but just doesn't understand why people want to chat online with each other and read long threads about frozen poultry bruises and drooly gimmedats. Not everyone can appreciate the scintillatingly knowledgeableness of this group.
