Date men and women from United States / California / Altadena, 67 year old

Date a man from California, United States. Although I've lived in southern California for more than twenty years, my essence is still small town Iowa. I also did a long stretch in Connecticut, where I learned to lock the door when I go on vacation. I'm helpful and courteous, and always try to see the other person's point of view. I also tend to be modest, which makes this an awkward genre in which to write. I'm curious about nearly anything. I have an advanced degree from an Ivy League school, but still like to take night courses when time permits. My job in experimental physics research requires travel to laboratories in the U.S. and China, so lately those night courses are on hold. In a recent experiment in Hamburg I could resuscitate only enough college German to get in trouble. Although I work in a very high tech place, when at home I tend to channel my grandmother, baking breads and pies and now and then hand-cranking some ice cream. I play tennis fairly well, and still use a wooden racquet. This gives me an advantage, as opponents tend to collapse in laughter when they see it. I sing bass in a very good community chorus; recent concerts are Carmina Burana, the Mozart Requiem and Brahms German Requiem. I'm in the upper right of the chorus picture, where we were singing Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. The photo in white is a subtle coverup of a few minor body flaws. I like trying new things, so let me know what you like and I'll give it a shot.
