Date men and women from United States / Arizona / Paradise, 68 year old

Date single man from Arizona, United States. My affectionate cat Mrs. Bender and sweet son Daniel mean a great deal to me, but I want a loving relationship. My values include (1) Self knowledge (2) A close and intimate relationship-that's where you come in (3) Altruism.
After thirty years of teaching elementary and high school I am enjoying retirement. I own a comfortable home in Paradise that I share with my 23 yr. old son who will be sadly moving in December. He works at the Chico airport and attends the local community college. I do volunteer work for local community groups and sometimes political candidates, hoping to make the world a better place in some small way. In my early 20s I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Malaysia, and hope to visit a former student in Kuala Lumpur next year. I am hard-working and believe in commitments.
Outdoor activities are important to me. I try to ride my bike daily. In the summer I enjoy swimming and kayaking at Lake Oroville, a walk around the block, sailing locally and in San Francisco Bay, (usually with fellow Chico Yacht Club members) gardening, picnics, camping in my vintage travel trailer (especially the World Music Festival) and to a lesser degree of enjoyment, yard work. During the colder months I like to x-country ski. Indoor activities include cooking nurturing and tasty meals, baking, reading, woodworking and watching an interesting movie. I keep waiting for a long rainy period to scan and sell part of an inherited vintage post card collection on-line.
I want to have a fulfilling relationship with an open and lovely woman without too much baggage. It seems to me this involves honesty, sensitivity, understanding, acceptance, dealing with criticism, acknowledging imperfections, flexibility, adjusting to change, mutual support, equality, and more. Doing is easier than saying. I don't believe there is a perfect match out there, but someone who is enough alike and shares common interests, is retired and has time to devote to a relationship.
