My grandchildren, genealogy, Mozart, most of God's little creatures, especially my kitties, learning, travel, relaxing by the ocean or walking & hiking. I also like to laugh, so if I can find clean comedy, I like that, too. Please check out my AARP profile page at http://www.aarp.org/community/ckmiller1943.
Mozart, Bach and many other Classical composers. Sacred choral music, folk and rock n' roll from the 1960's, Hawaiian slack guitar and vocals, Paul Simon, Libera, Twila Paris, Il Divo, Josh Groban, Bette Midler, David Lanz, Ron Artis and others.
The Mission is one of my favorite films. DeNiro at his absolute best! Sarah sings the lyrics in a way that melts your heart and the oboe is sublime. If this music doesn't move you, you are already dead!
Since we believe especially this movie to deserve more respect as to be (hot)linked into a variety of websites and blogs which, to put it mildly, show little sense and consideration towards the topic we made the decision to disable this feature. We hope you will understand.
Anyone who watched "Dances With Wolves" will never forget the sweeping photography of the great Western Plains and how they looked at one time. This was a beautiful, moving film and one of my all-time favorite epics.

Who I'd like to meet: Hawaii is a great place to meet all nationalities, colors, languages, different religions and it's a great place to expand your world and learn new things all the time. I'd like to meet people who love the Lord as I do, in the Christian faith, and am also open to meeting and knowing others. I think once we get to know a person and understand them, we can all get along better and get rid of all those silly prejudices we may have learned at home. I don't need or want a man in my life at this time as in intimate relationship, only as friends. I want lady friends to do things with, like lunch or shopping. I enjoy sharing my Faith with others. I'm a people person and can be a very good friend.
