Hello everyone! I have to apologize for not being around on the hyperboard as often during the past three weeks or so, and the reason is that I have been away on a very special road trip. I am sure that some of you remember the photos of my metup with Jason, but that was only the first leg of my journey.
The true reason for my trip was because I have met someone very special, over at another long hair site, the Long Hair Community (LHC). Her name is Tammy, she lives in Pennsylvania, and she is very, very special. At the age of 55, I never dreamed that romance was in the cards for me, but sometimes, miracles do happen, toatlly out of the blue. We have had an online relationship for over 9 months, and I was fianlly able to meet her in person, and spend about ten days with her. She is a sweetheart in every way. I left her home on Wednesday, and arrived home on Friday, and she has given me permission to post a few of our special photos. I miss her terribly already, and am already making plans for my next visit. Now, on to the photos!
The day I arrived, I took this photo of the two of us, with my camera on a tripod. Tammy is such a sweetheart, and I love her so!
The following day, Tammy did braids in our hair. Mine is a little bit crooked, and Tammy's is so much thicker than mine.
That evening, I cooked a spaghetti dinner, with garlic rolls, for the two of us, and my hair is in a braid. We were toasting our future happiness. Tammy even likes my cooking!
During our time away, we explored an old prison in Philadelphia, and met up with another LHC member and her husband. Here is a back photo of this other LHC member, myself, and Tammy. Due to high heat and humidity, my hair was frizzy and not the best.
Here is a front photo of me and Tammy, and the shirts were a special gift from Tammy for the two of us! I admit that I am a bit geeky.
Here is another front photo.
Finally, here is another braid photo!
I thought I would share these photos, and I admit that I am very happy right now, and feel very lucky to be blessed with a person like Tammy in my life. I am so looking forward to seeing her again.
Congratulations, David! She is a very pretty lady. You're a lucky devil! I wish you two the best of everything. Cheers!

Hi Splat,

That's wonderful, David! Tammy sounds like a "keeper". Thanks for sharing the pics!
Hi Randy,
Thank you for your kind words, and I was delighted to share the photos, with Tammy's permission. I feel genuinely blessed, and very happy, to have Tammy in my life!
Take care,

Hello David, I must say that this is something truly special. The photos look absolutely fantastic, hair and love between you two. I am extremely happy for you and glad that you have found somebody special. All of the hair photos looked fabulous. Congrats, David!!

Hi Hegg,
Thank you for all your very kind comments, and I never would have dreamed that I would be blessed with a person as special as tammy in my life. I feel so happy right now!
Thank you again,
David
Hi David
This truly is MORE than wonderful news..........more like the top (happy) headline story of the day and I am so happy for both you and Tammy. The photos tell it all and are nothing short of super!
Life can be just so amazing and love is about impossible to be kept caged-up at any age. And 55? Why, you're still a kid compared to myself. Just give it about another 50 years. LOL :-)
Many many blessings to both you and Tammy forever.

Take care,
David
Hello David !
I'm so glad you found someone ! Congratulations and best wishes for Tammy and you !
Your hair is awesome, the overall volume is really good, and the braid suits you well. When will you learn to do it yourself ? :)
Thanks for sharing this moment,
Vivien
Hi Vivien,
Thank you for all your kind comments about my sweetie, my hair, and my braid. Originally, Tammy was going to give me "braiding" lessons, but we got sidetracked a bit! I am sure that there will be lots of opportunities in the future!
Thank you again,
David
Hello David! I'm really happy to se you've found someone special:) love is one of the best things in life for certain and you two make a great couple=))
Take care my friend!
Thank you, Simon!
I feel really lucky that Tammy now blesses my life, and she is very special, and makes me feel special too! Right now, I am missing her terribly, and am making plans for our next time together.
Thank you again,
David
David !
I have been on pins & needles wondering how your visit went.....
Well, your photos say it all.....You two look so comfortable together...smiles say a lot. Tammy is just lovely with that gorgeous silver hair ~~
Happiness to you both !
Walter
Thank you, Walter!
You were one of the few who knew of my upcoming visit with Tammy, and we are delighted it went so well. She makes me feel special like no one has done before, and she is a very special lady too!
Thank you again,
David
Hi Dave. It is cool that you found someone. It makes me want to have a girlfriend myself.
However, when you do meet me in Seattle, I prefer to be just you and me (this is so we can enjoy ourselves without distractions; this rule applies to all guys I know, not just MLHH users; nothing against you).
Regardless
Hi Regardless,
Thank you for your kind words about me and my sweetie, and I feel very fortunate right now!
I will keep your suggestion in mind when we have the chance to meet, and my plans for any trips to the west coast may change a bit, depending on my future plans with Tammy. She is very special to me right now, so my road trip planned for next spring may be delayed a bit, since I want to spend all the time I can with Tammy.
Take care,
Dave
David,
Congratulations! I have always believed one is never too old to meet someone special, and you have proven it. The two of you look very happy together. Your food looks good as well; it's a good thing I just finished eating [g].
Tracy
Hi Tracy,
It is graet to "see" you again on the hyperboard, and thank you for your kind words for me and Tammy. I never dreamed this would happen to me at the age of 55, but true miracles DO happen! I am so happy right now!
Thank you again,
David
May you & Tammy be BLESSED with a long and loving togetherness!
Mighty FINE photos of the hair also.
May I ask David, how long are you into your hair growth, your length is what I set my Goal Length.
Frank
Hi Frank,
Thank you for all your blessings for the two of us, and I feel so lucky to have a person as sweet as Tammy in my life.
Thank you also, for your kind words about my hair, and I have been growing it for over 4 years. However, I had close to a year of almost nil growth, due to straightening damage, but thankfully, it is growing again, although a bit slowly.
Take care,
David
David, you look positively GLOWING in these pics, --- and you and Tammy do indeed look happy as clams in New England Clam Chowder together!!!
I'm thinking about that old Della Reese Cha-cha song right now, "Let's Do It":
"Bear do it, Bees do it,
Even educated fleas do it,
Let's do it, ---
Let's fall in love!"
You never looked better, David, --- and definitely one extremely happy-looking longhair in those wonderful pics!!!
Tammy must be one awesome gem of a lady!!!!!
Again,
CONGRATS!!!

Hi Ken,
What an absolute pleasure to see you posting, and it is a delight to share my happiness with you and all of my fellow hyperboard members. I feel so blessed these days, and thank you for your inspirational poem, and you hit the nail right on the head. I feel so young again, thanks to meeting a sweetheart like Tammy!
Take care, and my best, as always,
David
David I'm thrilled to read that you had such a wonderful time. Tammy looks like a fantastic person I'm sure you feel blessed to have found her. I wish you two well wherever the road my take you.
Thank you so much for sharing this happy moment in your life.
My best
Kevin
Hi Kevin,
It was a rael pleasure to share my happiness with you today, and thank you for all your kind words. The trip went very well indded, and I feel so blessed to have Tammy in my life. I am so looking forward to seeing her again.
My best, as always,
David
Hello David!
Hey I was waiting for this post from you as I figured you were home about now from your trip.First of all I'm grateful you had a great road trip and arrived home safe and sound.Second its fantastic that the main purpose of this trip was a success and I am so happy for you that it lived up to your expectations.Sometimes you have to make that bold move and pursue your dreams.I have to say as much as people complain about the internet it really does open more doors as your trip has definately proven.Just think how you would have met Tammy if there was no internet.I would say highly unlikely.So based on your experience I'm all for the internet as I believe there is more good that there is bad.Now that this trip is history you can move on to furthering your relationship with Tammy now that you've met face to face.Thanks so much for being a sport and posting all your cool pics during your time in PA.The only part that saddens me is that I never got the chance to meet you myself:( Well there is always future trips and I hope one day I can be a footnote in one of them.Take care David as you are an outstanding person and a friend:)
Mark
Hi Mark,
Thank you for your most thoughtful and heartwarming post, and for being such a wonderful friend. I am sure that there will be many opportunities to meet you in the future, and that would be a real pleasure.
I am so happy these days, to have met Tammy, and feel so lucky. I am dreadfully shy in RL, and would never have met Tammy but for the wonders of the internet, and it was an unexpected gift from heaven when she contacted me for the first time last December!
Thank you again, and my best, as always,
David
What a cute couple you two make! I'm so happy your trip was wonderful, and the hair pictures are awesome!
Mouse
Hi Mouse,
Thank you for your kind words for the two of us, and it was a pleasure to share my joy with my fellow hyperboard members.

To David and Tammy:
Cupid knows no constraints:
Not of time nor space nor age.
He with his golden arrow quiver
Sightlessly spies out his prey.
His little golden shaft stabs
Clean through to the heart.
We grow warm inside with the
Agitation of the cherubic god.
Due innamorati, mano in mano,
Braccio in braccio, come colombi--
Nuovo amore allo stato brado,
Non amorereggiare, ma amare.
Quest' uomo ha capelli lunghi;
Quella donna ha capelli lunghi.
Non posso fare a meno di pensare--
Que Venere spumeggia dal mare--
Per voi!
So happy to hear of this David--all the best to you. I can see in your eyes in the first picture exactly how you feel.
Hi Matt,
Thank you for your wonderful poem for the two of us, and for stopping on by to feel the joy in my heart. I am so happy, and feel blessed!
Take care,
David
Is that the famous LHC spaghetti recipe that you used? Paired with your equally famous garlic rolls. Now that you've met, you two will need to work out a schedule for visting one another. The tees remind me of Bill and Elizabeth's wedding. Remember "Groom" and "Bill's Wife"? You could have "Geeky Groom" and "Geeky Groom's Wife"! :D If not for the wedding itself, at least for a honeymoon. And you aren't just a bit of a geek, you ARE a geeky scientist, the kind that end up in LFHCfS. Gee, you're now on page 5 of newest entrants. They sure got a lot of new longhaired geeky scientific types there. At least being retired, you have the freedom to play golf or do whatever you want pretty much, no more daily grind in the lab. Looks like the best years of your life truly are ahead of you now.
Hi Carol,
Thank you for all your kind words for the two of us, and Tammy is very special! The matching T-shirts were a surprise gift from Tammy, and a rather cute idea.
The spaghetti sauce is the same recipe I have been using last fall, from another LHC member!
We already have plans to get together again in the near future, and she hopes to make it to Nova Scotia some day!
Thank you again,
David
I am very glad for you David. You both look happy and radiant. (And your hair is looking really good to boot, humidity notwithstanding!) Congratulations on being willing to dream and on pursuing such. I hope you and Tammy are able to continue your bliss and may you find a way to overcome your distance through your closeness.
Cheers!
Shawn (Mr.Crow)
Hi Shawn,
What a pleasure to hear from you, and I am so glad that youstopped on by to feel my joy. Tammy is a real sweetheart, and I miss her terribly, but we already have plans for future visits.
Thank you for your kind words about my hair as well.
Take care, and say hi to all your family!
David
Wow David! I feel so happy for the two of you! I wish you and Tammy the best and much happiness forever. Thank you for stopping in and sharing these joyful pictures with all of us.
all the best
Hi Chris,

Thank you again,
David
you guys look like you had fun, and your hair is b.a.,
Hi abesfg,
Thank you for your kind words, and we definitely had a grand time!
All the best,
David
Hey David, those pics of you and Tammy are superb and your hair was looking mighty fine even in all that humidity...which I prefer since it adds body and fullness to my very thin and fine hair. Those pics convey true happiness (including the t-shirts...I almost barfed...just joking) You and Tammy make a super looking couple indeed and I congratulate you on your new romance...couldn't happen to a nicer guy as they say. Having never heen lucky in love myself I always find it a joy when people actually achieve it...it's so heartwarming to see...so all the happiness in the world to you two!!!
Best wishes and congrats again,
Max
Hi Max,
What a pleasure to see you stop in to share my joy with me, and thank you for all your kind words. Never in a million years did I ever dream that romance would happen for me, so late in my life, after all these years of being alone. It goes to show that miracles can, and do happen, and Tammy really is a sweetheart!
Thank you again, and my best to you,
David
Hahaha! Geeks! :D:D:D
Great pictures!!!
Nice braids also. They look like a grandma every boy would love to have.
Hi Dusk,
Thank you for stopping on by to celebrate my joy, and I admit that I am very happy, and quite geeky as well!
Take care,
David
Hi David,

Neil

Congratulations! Tammy looks like a real winner. I found my wife (who also likes long hair on men) online, so I know it can work. We've been married 7 years.
Hi Pat,
Thank you for your kind words, and my congratulations to the two of you for your wonderful marriage. That is very cool that your wife likes long hair on men.
Take care,

~ Dave
Hi Dave,
Thank you for stopping on by to celebrate my joy, and it is a pleasure to see you. Tammy has made me so happy, and I really do feel like a teenager again! Right now, I am missing her terribly, and planning our next visit. Thank you for all your kind comments about our hair as well.
My best to you,
David

Thank you again,
David
Dude .. that is so awesome. Great pic's too. To bad we have to travel to find the sweet ones eh?
Blessed by Leaf and Star you must be.
Thank you, Quester!
It is true that I feel very lucky, and too bad that she lives so far away, but she is worth it! I am missing her terribly, and am already making plans to see her again.
Thank you again,
David
very cool man, good to hear you've found someone
where about in PA? I'm in a small town called Honesdale
Hi Caesar,
Thank you for your kind words about me and Tammy, and she is very special! She lives fairly close to Pittsburgh. I probably passed by your community during my drive to see her, and stayed at a hotel in Scranton, not too far from your community, the night before arriving at Tammy's home. Perhaps we can arrange a "meet" at some time in the future!
Take care,
David
Those are great pictures, David. You look very happy together.
Alun
Hi Alun,
Thank you for your kind words for the two of us, and I am so looking forward to seeing Tammy again. I am missing her terribly today.
Thank you again,
David
Wow David this is great news Im really happy for ya! You look happier than ever and your hair shows it too. I hope you guys stay together for a long time to come!
Also, do you know if you'll ever get a chance to pass through the state of Nevada on your trip? If ya do maybe you can get a chance to say hi to me or Walter.
Hi Di0,
Thank you for all your kind comments! I feel genuinely blessed to have found someone as special as Tammy. If I still make the road trip next year (I admit that my plans, and timing, of my trip may be adjusted slightly due to my relationship with Tammy), I would be delighted to meet you as I pass by your part of the country.
Thank you again, and take care,
David

Congratulations, DavidN! I am so happy for you and Tammy. May you have a beautiful, longhaired, and loving future.

This is just wonderful news and I'm so happy for you both; in the photos (which are all very good by the way) you both seem to be having a lot of joy. I wish the best for you both.
Hi Rob,
Thank you for your kind words for the two of us, and I am very happy right now, but I am missing my Tammy terribly!
Thank you again,
David
Congratulations David!
I am so delighted that you found someone special and are so happy. You and Tammy make a very cute couple and she has magnificent hair. Nature can be a wonderful colorist sometimes :)
You really never can tell where a simple decision like growing your hair can lead you too :)
Hi Chris,
What a pleasure to see you stop on by, and thank you for your kind words for the two of us! I never dreamed, that when I joined the hyperboard about two years ago (and then the LHC), that it would eventually lead to romance, especially at the ripe old age of 55! It goes to show that it is never too late to enjoy life to the fullest!
My best to you, as always,
David
Hi David, I have not been around much either, but I see you found someone wonderful. May your romance bloom into a wonderful life long relationship.
Scott
Hi Scott,
What a pleasure to see you, and thank you for your kind words. Tammy is very special in my heart, and I hope to spend many days, months, and years with her by my side.
Take care,
David
