Dave

Sporting a no-nonsense strong but caring personality and born of a pure Cherokee mother, Dave is 6' 1", 209 pounds, with massive shoulders and chest, Scorpio, November 4, 1940, and delighted finally to get senior discounts!



Dave has been an amateur astronomer and photographer for many years and more recently, has become extensively interested in anthropology and archeology. In winter, he did some educational travel to Greece and Cyprus, and he has travelled all over the world studying and participating in the richness of other cultures.  He enriched his doctoral program with Asian, especially Chinese, studies.

Heritage and Beliefs:

I am half Native American: Cherokee (Deer Clan). When I was 14, 15, 16, I went to live with the Tribe and prepare for the Rites of Manhood. At age 16, I went through the Rites, which included a survival exercise .... 6 weeks in the mountains, living off the land. This was a defining event in my life, preparing me to be a Real Man. Perhaps these defining events were what made me so strong.

A loving and spiritual life is important to me. I study my Native American beliefs, Buddhism, and Unity. (Unity is a scientific and rational approach to Christian ideals, without all the church-imposed myth, imagination and nonsense.)
