Giddy everyone,
I thought i would add my first blog about "the ideas of date".....
There something different about date not only go out to movie or old school date types.......

Here is my fews ideas for dates:
- Go to unusual bar like Ice bar see the website >>> Chill On - Melbourne's First Ice Bar - Seriously frigid fun
- Action sports date like rock climb, sky diving, surfer and etc.
- market day
- special events - Local Fest, foods fest, Music fest, international film fest and etc

Anyone else can add the share of ideas for date.

I love sporting events. Finding a lady who is a fan of sports is a plus.....so when two have both in common, sporting events are awsome dates in my opinion. I feel they are more laid back, in a "lighter" atmosphere with little stress, and getting excited (i.e. clapping, jumping up, cheering) is acceptable. It is easier to "open up" to each other if you don't know that person very well. And for the gentleman with a high sports IQ - do not, do not spend the date endorsing your knowlege....answer questions, but focus on her fun and ensuring she is having a great time.

Going on hikes in mountains. Let the beauty of nature open up a girls heart to you. It is a very romantic date and very good to chat and get to know each other better.

OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH nothing like a good hockey game!!!

Chase

Don't get me wrong; I like Oregon. But there's no local hockey team! One of the things I miss most about Montana is several pro hockey teams to argue about and a scratch hockey league near every lake or pond.

If I want to skate here, I'll need training wheels on my blades.

Schermy

Yeah I do miss sometimes just throwing the skates in the car and running down to the local "rink" that they had every year outside. Now I'm in Florida and there's not much ice. I did go to a TB lightnigh game last week. Nice!!! I do love me some Hockey!!!! Ohhhhhhhh and may be a few of the players!!!

GarnetTigerMom

Count me in..my hubby is so thrilled that I love to watch football cuz all of his exes had no idea what the shape of a football was! HOWEVER, I wish my hubby was the outdoorsy type cuz I love to go camping and nature hikes...whenever I drag him to do those activities, he always complains of bugs. Yes, we both love romance..now if I can turn this city boy into a nature lover.

LOL funny anytime I date some guy they are always complaining about bugs, I just simply say put on some bug spray and have fun! ha. Normally I always thought men like outdoorsy fun and they tell us women in past we complain about bugs? lol now that funny. But hope you can get your hubby to be a nature lover and tell him the best fun outdoor is sitting by a fire, roasting marshmellow and looking under the stars heee no one's looking heee. PS don't tell him you see a bear he might run! just kidding.

He said he has had enough of camping to last a lifetime from his experiences in the Marine Corps. I told him that was different. He said if we are going camping, we are going in style (meaning get a RV). LOL!

It's so fun to go someplace when they have fireworks. I love to sit with someone and watch them and then go get icecream afterwards.

Chase

Great visual date, Shermy. Another one for early mornings is to pack a blanket and thermoses of coffee and take in a hot-air balloon show.

Gemma

Yamhill or Marion County is perfect for this!

Schermy

Or a blanket and bottle of wine on the beach to watch the sunset. I love to watch that.

Gemma

What about an airplane show? I love watching these jets soaring.

Where I live, there are so many beautiful outdoor sites such as the gorge, beach or mountains - going on a hike then have a picnic is a must!

Also, taking a long drive through wine country ranks one of my top ten perfect dates. But then again, even going to a cozy bookstore/coffeeshop on a rainy day is fun too!

Chase

Gemma, are you an Oregonian? I've only been here a little over a year. I worked bees in Clakamus County and live in Linn County. The balloons take off at Timber Linn Park, right out my front window. You are sure right how visiting the wineries is a terrific date, but you haven't lived till you taste mead, the wine made from honey.

I can spend the whole day at Powell's Book Store in Portland, one entire city block of multi-level bookshelves. Even has its own espresso shop.

For folks who don't like skis and snowboards, a good date is sledding and tobogganing the foothills of Mount Hood and Bachelor Mountain.

Schermy

I've never seen hot air balloons in person. I would love too. It seems like it would be really cool. I have, however, sat on my front porch and watched a night launch of the sapce shuttle and it was pretty darn awsome!!!!

Deafilmedia

Go picnic at nice settings.

Gemma

Yep I am an Oregonian I have tried wines from grapes and rice but honey? Hmmm..must be a very sweet wine?

Powells! Yeah you scored a point!

Dont forget - going up to Timberline Lodge is a romantic idea of date too! Sitting in front of the massive fireplace, drinking hot schnapps, watching skiers through windows and petting Bruno!

Chase

Sherny, yeah, I would love to see/feel a rocket blast into space. Save me a seat for that one.

Deafilmedia, Yep, a scenic picnic is a perfect day-date. I've been hitting the picnic sites at covered bridges along Crabtree Creek. Beautiful.

Gemma, this January I'm going to try to find a gal to visit Timberline Lodge for fondue at the firepit.

I'll need to do this on a visit back to Montana or better yet Alberta, Canada, but few late-night dates are better than watching The Northern Lights. What a show!

Schermy

Sure......come on down and see it. Pretty cool. I watch it every launch day or night.

Gemma

Why in January? It is not far from you

Gemma

Another great date I have had was having the guy and I trying out a new recipe together - it always gives me glimpse of his character - you can tell a lot about a man by his cooking or washing dishes I find men much more talkative while doing things so I try to engage them in action that would be fun for both of us yet have him open up without realizing it

Schermy

YEAH..........the way a guy cooks say a WHOLE lot about them.

Chase

That's a really good post-second-date-date, Gemma. I have a propane grill on my third floor verandah overlooking the creek (ha ha ha, "verandah" is too fancy a word for an 8 by 8 overhanging porch). I do honey-glazed venison chops to die for.

I can talk when I cook, but not speechread, because I either make mistakes with the food or conversation. For the gal I date who signs, we usually argue books and videos, so it's best not to cook then, either.

Handsome_Smiley

I guess it would also depend where you are what you can do. Like my hometown, there where some places to go, like the Falls in Canada/Buffalo. Rochester had a lot of history places to go to.

Where my wife is from, there a lot too. There was the OK Coral and Tomestone. There places is Tucson and Phx.

Now we are in Germany for a couple more years, and there even other places we can't go in the states. There soo many castles here. Also, soccer games and other historical places. The cities and the markets have been built real nice. Also, if you go out and eat, don't have to get up and leave soon as you are done. Can sit and chill for hours talking and getting to know each other and it won't bother anyone.

Yeah dinner is a "nice" date but you do have to get up and go. I think one of the best dates I ever had was walking around downtown Chicago at night and then going up the Sears tower and seeing the city all lit up at night. Very beautiful. Sitting on a park bench watching Buchamingham foutain light up at night is very nice.

Chase

Hey, Handsome Smiley! Ha ha ha, your name suggests you're a chick magnet. My name says the opposite. I have to chase 'em.

When I was stationed in Germany in the middle of the last century, the army training center near Grafenwoehr was a tank and artilliary range. I sure hope the cracker-box barracks we had have been improved.

I was stationed farther south in Goeppingen, between Stuttgart and Ulm, ins Der schwarze Wald.

Anyway, back here in the land of round doorknobs, a nice date is "bazaar shopping." My invitation is kind of a trap. First I let her pick, usually some flea market or mega-garage-sale. Afterwards, we hit a gun show. If she wrinkles her nose or argues FOR gun control, I ditch her and let her walk home.

Just kidding, but there's usually no subsequent date, ha ha ha.
