Please read and understand this page thoroughly before contacting me with a booking request as I will just refer you to this page if you ask a question already covered here. Circular, I know.
Every Little Detail You Need to Know
My rates are in USD. Cash only. I do not accept checks or process credit card payments. Though I require a deposit, I make that as painless as possible for both of us. I expect to discreetly receive the balance at the beginning of our time together.
You’re always welcome to leave sooner if needed, but I expect to be compensated as planned for the amount of time you originally reserved with me.
Incall/outcall is at your discretion anywhere within the DFW metroplex, so please let me know if you prefer a particular area over another. (If you’re requesting individual travel and require incall, please let me know so I can make the arrangements when I make my travel plans.)
This is a simple flat-rate plan — my rates remain the same regardless of where on the planet we meet. Actually, other than possible travel expenses, I remain flat-rate. I like to keep things simple.

These offers are not “bargains” but a way to indulge myself with a like-minded gentleman. There will always be little events I’m interested in, so check back regularly and see what I’m offering. You may discover we share an unexpected fondness for one thing or another. My deposit requirements apply to all offers here.

Tradition: Afternoon Tea
I spent two months in the UK and fell in love with afternoon tea (English Breakfast is my cup of tea). It’s a fine British institution and I prefer it over High Tea. This is a self-indulgent way of giving you a nice memory. I am only open to new venue suggestions if they meet or exceed the level of my current list (which I have personally vetted before adding here). The venues-list may change, so always double-check.
Afternoon Tea is served at: The Adolphus (Fri-Sun), The Ritz-Carlton (Saturday) and The Dallas Arboretum (weekday availability). Tea can be enjoyed at the beginning or end of our time together.
Highbrow: Music/Art
These are performances from the Dallas Symphony I’m willing to share with an equally-interested partner. Enjoy an evening of leisure and pleasure beginning with dinner, including pre-symphony champagne and post-symphony discussion. Listening to beautiful music is a great excuse to toss your cell phone into the nearest fountain (the champagne bucket suffices as well).
Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, Feb 23-26 (always a favorite)
Mozart & Tchaikovsky, May 3-5 (yes!)
Beethoven’s Fidelio, May 11, 13
Or we can always enjoy an afternoon wandering The Crow Collection of Asian Art. There are a few fine-art photo galleries in Dallas if you’re interested, or the legendary Amon Carter in Ft Worth. Or how about a visit to Nasher Sculpture Garden — which may look strangely familiar!
Lowbrow: Horse Racing
As both a horse-lover and horse-racing fan, I would love to spend a Saturday or Sunday ensconced in a box at Arlington Park playing the ponies. I’m the sort who enjoys watching the horses in the paddock before the jockeys are up. First day of live racing is May 4.
Arlington Day (approx 6-10hrs): A day of live racing, plus the evening — $3500.
Triple Crown Package — simulcast only (May 5, May 19 and June 9): 3 Arlington Days as described above — $10,000. Derby Day hat included.
Triple Crown Travel Package — live racing: I spend all three race days with you at the actual tracks. A full 24hr visit for each race, my travel expenses (and hat) included — $20,000.
Breeders’ Cup (Nov 2, 3): 2 Arlington Days, simulcast only ($6500) or a weekend of live racing at Santa Anita/Arcadia, CA ($12,000).
Both Triple Crown Packages require full payment before or on May 5. Needless to say, both the Triple Crown and Breeders’ Cup are annual events that can only be shared with one person per year.
Very Simple Deposit and Cancellation Policy
Click to show infoClick to hide info
— Due to a strong aversion to wasting my time (or yours), a 50% deposit is required for all bookings. Details after screening, though I assure you I keep it simple and anonymous.
— If you cancel (without rescheduling) with less than 7 days’ notice, you forfeit your 50% deposit. If you pre-paid in full, the remaining 50% will be refunded. Airline tickets already purchased cannot be refunded, though the date can usually be changed.
— Should I cancel at any time, all monies are refunded, in full, immediately.
— I will rarely cancel.

Individual Travel Requests
If you want me to visit you and you’re not in the DFW metroplex, please read below.

Texas/Domestic travel
— Texas travel beyond the DFW metroplex requires at least 7 days advance notice. Travel expenses are not required, but always appreciated.
— Domestic travel requires a minimum 14 day advance notice and travel expenses with the deposit. Travel expenses are included in domestic bookings of 24hrs or longer.
— Business/First class airfare required for flights longer than 3hrs.
— You do realize the more in-advance airfare is booked the cheaper the ticket, yes? Okay, just checking.
International Travel
The absolute minimum booking is 12hrs — depending on the country’s proximity to the US. If your country is several time zones away or requires an advance visa, the required minimum begins at 24hrs. For example, the 12hr minimum would apply to Mexico or the Caribbean. It would not apply to Singapore.
Business or First Class airfare is required with the deposit.
The Icing
– The things are that left vague — such as how we structure our time together — are deliberately vague. Each encounter is its own and I’m happy to leave it that way.
– Though I am not a concierge by any stretch of imagination, I can offer suggestions beyond what’s on this page. Conversely, I’m quite happy to offer a bespoke experience if there is something you have in mind. Feel free to inquire after properly introducing yourself.
– The time frames above are to give you an idea of what to expect. I am not a strict clock-watcher; less so as I’ve gotten older. Of course, there are many reasons why, for example, four hours might remain four hours. Or why four hours may turn into six. Don’t overthink it: just enjoy the gift of my time if I choose to give.
