Date men and women from United States / California / Hidden Valley Lake, 60 year old

Date people from California, United States. Hello - and thanks for stopping by. I really am humble and kind - honestly so - and I look for simple ways to be helpful. Hope you are much the same. :)
By the way, the pics are mostly about things I love to do, not to show off as one lady on Match said to me recently in an email. (Except for the yard work - can't say I love it - but I do it anyway as needed!)
Like a typical Sagittarius I find humor in almost everything. And isn't it funny how we all like much the same things - I bet most of this applies to YOU also: “to laugh / dance / dine out / read good books / take a walk on the beach / enjoy a glass of wine” and such. Me too - not that it tells you much about me - so I'll add that I'm a playful, happy, smart, strong, honestly good guy. And frankly it seems like there are a LOT OF OTHER GOOD GUYS out there as well. Wow. This should be easy for you girls!
Yet this is NOT exactly a trip to the shopping mall (I'll take that one, please, but add hair to it and drop twenty pounds!) so I am making my best attempt to convey what is real about me, and what I hope to find in YOU. :)
My work: I own an internet marketing company and I do OK. Love it if you have some interest in graphics, photography, internet stuff - but not super important. Chemistry, connection and heart are what counts.
As for my basic attitude - I enjoy most everyone and everything, most all the time. I especially love kids of all ages, dogs, flying and rivers. (Regarding the last two, check out the pics!)
I often find myself delighted over small things, and when others don’t I wonder why not? It is all so amazing to me – life and everything about it is such a gift. Even the tough stuff. Ram Dass said, after his stroke, that it was “fierce grace”. Wow. I love that guy.
So Beautiful (and I mean that - EVERY WOMAN is beautiful deep in her soul), I hope YOU ALSO are playful, happy and smart.
I hope you like to be held, to snuggle and to hold me. I hope you like unexpected kisses and roses, and a night out on the spur of the moment. I hope you will cry in my arms if you need to, and let me do the same.
I hope you are sweetly and generously passionate, with total abandon. I hope you will love that about me!
Oh yeah, and I hope you EMAIL me! All emails will be answered, unless the sender lives far, far away. Fair?
Here is some more mushy stuff: I would love waking up every morning to say "Good Morning, Beautiful!" to my lady. And she might say "Hey handsome!!" Sure, the bodies will wear out and may not look as good in later years, but real beauty is within.
And this might be important: I have been with just two women in the last 30 years. I’m not a playboy, not a player. I’m most comfortable in a committed long-term relationship and I’m willing to develop it over time. My guess is that you feel the same because that is how love grows.
Nothing but love makes sense. Nothing else matters. Nothing else is real.
"Love is the answer, whatever the question" is a truth for all time and eternity.
So in closing, I’m real. I'm sure YOU ARE TOO! If nothing else lets at least share a few notes about how this on-line dating thing is working out. What a trip! Thanks again for stopping by, Beautiful! Bye for now. Patrick

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. I'm a bit off beat I read voraciously several books each month. The last two were Pattern Recognition a novel by William Gibson, and What Liberal Media by Eric Alterman. now I'm working on a spy thriller. My politics would give Rush Limbaugh a heart attack. I really like the arts but my resume includes things like Special Forces Officer, Deep Sea Diver, Civil Engineer as well as having published a CD Rom Ballet Dictionary. I love all sorts of things associated with water I swim, I put a hot tub in last year that measures 7 feet around by 5 feet deep so that I could do watsu ( a type of massage done in warm water) in the winter without having to heat my pool every time I wanted to do oneSomeone fun, sexy, funny, social. Someone to be a partner and companion at a formal affair,a mud bath or...
