Thanks for the feedback folks.
As I said, the bar scene really ain't my scene, especially going solo.
I am into plants, animals and nature so I joined the local feild naturalist's society. The meetings are enjoyable and informative but at least 80% of the ppl ther are over 40...

Y'know It just occurred to me that while most of the people there are outta my age-group, they all probably have daughters, grand-daughters, neices, etc.... Hmmmmmm.....
