Date people from California, United States. Hello. Thanks for stopping by. My name is Ed. I am hoping to meet a special lady who is interested in building a great relationship. I am passionate, both emotionally and physically, romantic, affectionate, caring, and giving. I appreciate natural beauty. I believe in total openness, communication, honesty and faithfulness. I have a very positive outlook on life, and while there are times I have to be somewhat serious, I prefer things to be light hearted. Be serious when you have to be and enjoy life as much as possible. I enjoy the outdoors a great deal, whether it’s on the ski slopes, scuba diving, paddling a river, hiking or mountain biking. I also have been known to throw on a backpack or ride horses from time to time. I work out at the gym regularly and am currently trying to improve my mediocre tennis game. Music is also a big part of my life. I enjoy listening to a great variety of music, from American Jazz to Latin Jazz to Modern Country and even Celtic (I’m first generation Irish), along with playing my guitar. I greatly enjoy attending cultural events and a wide variety of restaurants. I love exotic flavors. Wines are another of my passions. I want to continue experiencing the wonderful adventures life has to offer. I grew up traveling and although I have visited many foreign destinations my list seems to continually get longer. I look forward to meeting that lady who appreciates the value of a truly intimate relationship, someone who is not afraid to open their heart to the right person, someone who understands that successful relationships are based on communication, honesty and openness, an intelligent and independent woman with a great sense of adventure, passion and humor. One who appreciates the simple as well as the finer things in life. I look forward to hearing from you
Meet people from California, United States. I'm a Texas girl at heart being raised in Dallas, but not the conservative one you would expect. I have loved living in Calfornia since 1989 and went from southern CA for 10 years to Sonoma County since 1999. I have a wonderful group of friends with whom we have shared many trips and family events from births to graduations. I have two children - a 16 year old boy, junior in highschool and a 19 year old girl, sophmore away at college in Washington. I treasure my close friends and also love my time on my own to meet new friends and explore new places. I look forward to more travel in the future and hope to meet someone who shares that same interest in traveling to perhaps Europe again, New Zealand or to any warm and sunny location. I think I am predictable but can also be quite spontaneous and hope to meet someone who brings more of that into my life! I enjoy quiet dinner and books as well as cooking and movies - the outdoors is always big for me - whether it be walking, hiking, cycling, or just exploring - the sunnier the better!
