Date men and women from United States / California, 73 year old

Date a man from California, United States. My Mom & Dad were from central Maine & Boston, beginning their marriage & family in the teeth of the great depression, so my 3 sisters & I were instilled with a stern moral grounding & the old New England addage "Use it up, wear it out, make do, do without." Onerous as it seemed at times, it gave us a really strong foundation.
Fortunately, fun was not ruled out & we were truly "free range kids" prowling barefoot through the neighborhood from right after breakfast until the fireflies came out. Roller skates came next, increasing our range by a few blocks and when we moved up to bicycles we ranged from one end to the other of our small Ohio town & a bit into the countryside. This boyhood experience left me with an outgoing & pragmatic nature.
A move to the big-time city of Philadelphia coincided with High School and brought about an outward layer of toughness & sophistication. Don't know quite how, but we survived puberty: teen angst, fitting in or even being popular, passion & pimples--whew!
Along came college & my sisters thrived, while I did the Black Sheep thing, never finishing. I fumbled through my twenties, gravitating to the automotive industry with a brief stint at an oil company, two different auto dealerships & then, beginning in 1976, my own auto parts store. We went through early gowing pains but came on strong, adding a machine shop & earning a decent living. In 1997 my primary supplier made me a buyout offer I couldn't refuse & I became a Realtor, joining my wife's existing business.
Ah yes, my wife, Lela. On a Friday night in May of 1968 at a singles bar just outside of Princeton, N.J. there was one empty seat at the bar & it was next to me & she sat down. Thus the fire was lit & she kept the pot boiling as we dated through that summer, toting our toothbrushes back & forth from her place in Griggstown to mine in Skillman. On October 14th we got practical and merged operations into the Skillman venue, mainly because it was up on a hill with a nice view. She was recently divorced at the time & convinced that marriage was a terrible idea to be avoided at all costs. So we didn't get hitched until Jan 25, 1969. She felt an even worse idea would be for her to have a second child (I had become an instant father), so our son didn't arrive for a couple more years.
Although that fire still burned & the pot was still boiling, sometimes it would simply simmer, while at others it would flare up & boil over. We decided a change of scenery & a little adventure sounded good, so in 1970 we quit our jobs & headed for California, settling in the East Bay. As many couples do, we worked through many practical issues, including division of labor & now I am competent & reliable domestically, shouldering all of the budren in shopping, laundry, banking & bill pay, recycling & waste management, & major portions of cooking & cleaning. But alas, my beloved passed away suddenly & unexpectedly in August 2010, leaving a gaping hole in my heart. Of course it staggered me, but the worst of it is in the rearview & I am ready to start anew. Sorry for babbling on, but I figured you deserve to know who I am & how I got where I am today.
For the last two years I've been working towards installing solar panels & finally got it done in November. Then on the very last day of 2010 I took delivery of a brand new Chevy Volt (plug-in hybrid). Sorry, but I'm feeling a little smug as I tool around town gasoline free, powered by the sun. Zzzzaaaappp!
Now I need someone to entertain, comfort, console, amuse, inform, adore & hug while she does much the same for me.

Date single man from United States. I am retired from my career as a graphics designer and photojournalist for national publications and really enjoyed my work.
I was educated in art and more recently have enjoyed art history classes at UC Berkeley. I have an art museum membership that I would love to share with someone. My clay work and ceramic sculpture are things I am proud of as an accomplished artist. I also have an appreciation of movies, especially film noir.
I love the outdoors and make the time to go on hikes with friends as well as on daily walks for exercise. I like dancing as well, but please don't ask me to tango just yet.
Dave Brubeck, Ellington, Basie and Mulligan are some of my favorite jazz musicians. I have a wonderful small collection of vintage jazz vinyl and have taken jazz history classes at Berkeley City College. An evening at Yoshi's at Jack London Square for a performance can be enjoyable. Have you ever been there? What kind of music lights your fire?
Travel is something I would like to do more of. I have traveled to Bavaria, Switzerland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Southern Spain, and Northern Italy as well as Mexico and Central America. I am ready to go again. It would be great to share some travel adventures. There are many new places I would love to explore with the right lady.
Relationships are important to me. I value my family (I am a very happy grandfather for the first time!)
as well as a small handful of special buddies that I make an effort in keeping close touch with. In the past two years, my volunteer work as a mentor for young juvenile offenders at a detention facility has been very satisfying.
I am looking for a healthy, committed relationship with someone warm, expressive, and honest with a good sense of humor (it’s good for the soul!) who will hopefully share some of my interests and make my heart beat faster.
I look forward to the opportunity to get to know you and what you are all about.

Date men and women from United States. Hi.
Me here.
I am satisfied with my life, and everything is in order
but I enjoy that vitality which comes from "the vibrations that run in close proximity".
I love the bond in a relationship of constant mutual awareness.
I am a person who is present and I would like to join with a new friend to shed our filters one at a time...like a bunch of 3 year olds throwing off clover leaves as they run through that that manicured pathway in the giant garden.
And having some time to recharge our batteries at times.
I have been divorced and retired (I'd recommend it.-retirement- that is;
once you do it you may never feel compelled to return to a structured workplace) .
Every day is different for me. I view myself as a reflective person,
who is grounded by love
I have an adult son living in a separate studio.
Ii would love to find a person who is sponteneous and playful, supportive,
who likes new experiences, who is aware of our and other cultures.
and educated, possibly interested in non-touristy travel.
a person who who likes to hike and get exercise and eats relatively healthy meals.
And, I even might might find love and happiness
with someone who only matches some of those qualities.
I love discussions about ideas. and I like people with a spiritual sense.
I want to be comfortable being my self and in the presence of someone who is equally herself and with whom I can connect on a common frequency.
This could translate into a spiritual and unconventional women
whose agenda is largely satisfied,
and who enjoys simple ways.
I would like to date person who lives in this county or a nearby one.
By the way, Soquel is in Santa Cruz County
