I did not know of the plentyoffish.com which looks really good. There are gals on there that just want to hang out instead of looking for a long term R.
I have checked out the meetup.com before and will probably try the hiking or outdoors group once I get some time once our shared custody arrangement gets started.
I also want to reconnect with my best friend from grade school and high school. All we have done since I have been married is just keep in contact by phone just once in a while. It is time to get back to the wilderness, mountains and ocean where I am most at ease.
