I am a retired former Federal Service Career person. I now enjoy volunteering, my garden, and maintaining my home. I enjoy meeting people, lively conversation, swimming, and spending time in my neighborhood walking my dog. I am seeking a visiting scholar serious, but with a sense of humor, who may enjoy a comfortable, quiet retreat that has access to city life, and the many treasures Washington DC offers.
