The Lady Who Still Writes Thank-You Notes · Box 1511

Lady, 58 · Scottsdale, AZ · Ladies Seeking Gentlemen · Featured notice

I keep a box of stationery by the kitchen window and a fountain pen I am told is too good for grocery lists. I use it anyway. I spent thirty years as a hospital pharmacist, and now I spend my mornings walking the canal path and my evenings with a good mystery or an old Hepburn picture.

I am looking for a gentleman, 55 to 68, who is kind to waiters, curious about the world and unafraid of a long letter. I will tell you about my garden of stubborn desert roses if you will tell me what you are reading. Photographs can wait; I would rather know how you think.
