Travel: This can be to a ghost town nearby, an over night trip to northern Arizona, or weekend trip some funky town over on the border, or to Santa Fe, or out of the country. I just returned from a 4 week road trip around the country: to New Orleans, Wash DC, New York, new England, Cape Cod, Canada, and back thru the mid-west. Saw a lot of America, and Americans. what a beautiful trip, whew!!
Booksreading: For novels, Barbara Kingsolver, or Annie Proulx. Certain personal growth books. More art books than one should legally own..

Those things are important to me

Meet people from Arizona, United States. If one looked at life as a fable...say the "tortoise and the hare..." (remember that?), I would be the tortoise. Knowing the goal, knowing the path I need to accomplish the goal, and executing the plan. While the hare, who is many times faster than the tortoise, loses focus, and strays too often, leaves the door open for the tortoise to win the race by a step. This is how I view myself, someone who stays the course.
My social life consists of dinners out and exchanging lunch with a buddy of mine once a month. I exchange an occasional visit with one or some of my children and grandchildren. I may be a conservative republican, but my best friends are liberals, and I enjoy inviting them over for dinner and cards. I’m not someone, and have never been someone, who likes to hang out at a bar with guys. My favorite place to be would be in my home with my dog Vinny, for now.
I enjoy traveling, not to learn about many cultures, but to focus on one or two. Italy would be my prominent country of choice. I would enjoy the beach destinations of Mexico and the Mexican culture. I have not been to the Caribbean or to the New England states, or many other places in America that would be on my list of places to learn about and visit. Some of my favorite quick trips to make are to Las Vegas, Laughlin, Sedona, and Flagstaff.
I have played a lot of sports in my life...today I enjoy pro-football season...so I can see my beloved Pittsburgh Steelers. I was born and raised outside of Pittsburgh. The other sport I enjoy is pro golf, particularly if Phil Mickelson is playing. I also look forward to attending the Phoenix Open in Scottsdale.
My hobbies include Cooking and Gardening. I have been passionnate about cooking Italian food for many years. I am best known for my lasagnas and sauce. Gardening brings me just as much joy. From planting to harvesting.
Grateful is a word which I identify with...from being the son of a factory worker in western Pennsylvania, and being raised in a very challenging life, and being able to come to Arizona at age 17...was the most important decision of my life. That is when my other blessings engulfed me, from graduating with a college degree to finding love with a young woman and having 5 children and now 7 grandchildren with 2 on the way. My blessings have been many, including a reasonably successful career in R.E. developing/construction. Now that I am retired, I am looking for a companion, a partner to talk with, travel with, lunch with, and spend a good amount of time with.

My idea of a relationship could be described as a companion, partner, love interest, one who enjoys being comfortable with her financial security as I am mine. Marriage would be a serious discussion with me.
I am looking for a woman who is as attractive on the inside as she is on the outside. She should be comfortable in her own skin, comfortable with people, and above all, comfortable with me. I would love for her to have a good sense of humor, able to laugh at herself, and join in with laughing with my children (30-37) at and about their father. I’d like her to enjoy going to the movies, to dinner, short day trips, work in the yard and garden, and enjoy evenings of fixing dinner together, and watching some television before calling it a night. A simple life, not a complicated one.
I am a one woman man, once I find a serious connection with one person, I am in it 100%. One of my favorite places to be is at home with my partner, enjoying each other’s company.
Well, I'm out of thoughts, words and would leave you with this vision...picture a man who is thoughtful, nice, respectful, giving, and loving...kind of a rock, or someone you can count on in good times and bad.
Until later...Goodnight, Jim

Date men and women from Arizona, United States. My brother talked me into placing my profile on match. I guess he knew I was ready to meet someone. It has been a couple of years since my husband passed away and my brother is right. It is time. I have been blessed with a comfortable life and good health. I act and feel younger than my years. I have a beautiful and loving family and I enjoy being with them when possible. I love to golf, I play often, enjoy entertaining in my homes, the movies, traveling, diniing out, taking long walks, keeping a clean and a tidy house and having a trusting relationship.

I spend part of the year in Prescott, AZ and the winters in Rancho Mirage, CA. I would like to meet someone that is flexible and easy going. I think it would be great to find a man interested in playing golf with me, maybe traveling together. I'm an above average player and like team and tournament golf. I've had a very interesting life, worked for a major airline as head of their Standards Dept, became a Real Estate Broker and investor, was married to my late husband for 31 years and helped him with his international marketing business. I have traveled the world and now enjoy living in the southwest.
I am a sincere, caring and giving person. I have no baggage and come with no drama. This is about finding a relationship that is comfortable, compatible and beneficial to both. About sharing life with a partner who cares.
I believe it would be lovely to spend time with a gentleman and if you are out there I would like to meet you.

I am looking for a companion/lover who has had a fascinating life and wants to have more - more travel, more adventures and more of a good life with a good woman. I am artistic, compassionate, passionate, kind and have a working sense of humor. Please be prepared to write more than three sentences in our communications. Communication being the key word. I am really interested in what you think and why, your life history, your family, your intersts. Cooking and entertaining friends is part of who I am. You should have a palate for good food and perhaps love cooking too! I spend my time here doing some snorkeling, reading, learning and enjoying my friends. In music :I like jazz, classical, world, whimsical and almost every type in small doses. During the week I work full time with children, a delightful job. Pilates is my main exercise, am gearing up to 3x a week from 2. Staying in reasonable shape is always a goal for me and a conscious effort; I am a Type B in the exercise area. Your fitness should be on your mind too, but not finatically. A liberal in politics and I hope you can be at least liberal-leaning. Some of the most important assests we would share would include a good sense of humor, the ability to laugh at or smile at the little things in ones day, a certain level of sophistication and being comfortable with yourself. In terms of travel I am very happy with day trips, so much to see in AZ and short trips. There are a couple of places outside the USA I still hanker to experience and hope you have your favorites too.
P.S. I just turned 70 and can't find where to change the number in Match.

Meet someone special from United States. I'm 65. Born and raised in Phoenix. Moved up to Prescott 16 years ago and love my home in the pines. I've been widowed twice. I would like to meet someone I'm compatible with to enjoy going to the movies, going out to dinner, having over to my home for dinner, sitting out on the deck enjoying a glass of wine, taking trips together - just enjoying life. I would have to have a physical attraction to my companion. I would prefer someone who is politically conservative and does not smoke. I am active in my Corvette Club, my church, volunteer work, card group, and my Red Hat Ladies club. I belong to a "ladies only" gym and work out every morning that I can. Friends and family are very important to me.
Although I am a grandmother, I'm certainly not ready to spend my evenings out on the porch in a rocking chair. There's still so much life to live, so many sights to see, so much to enjoy. But it's much more fun when you have someone you care about to enjoy it with you.
I'm caring and nurturing. I have a good sense of humor and would like for my companion to also. I'm fun loving and positive. I'm old-fashioned enough to not be comfortable making the first move. It will be up to you to contact me.
