Date men and women from United States / California / Mission Hills, 63 year old

Date single man from Mission Hills, United States. I'm described by friends as easy-going, ethical, honest, friendly, understanding/good listener, honorable, down-to-earth, trustworthy, reliable, fun-loving, loyal, sincere, considerate, perseverant, communicative/literate, open-minded. I'm an animal/music/beach/mountain/barbecue lover, disdain inter-personal games/drama, not a "player"/very selective, prefer casual/business casual to suit and tie/tuxes, but do enjoy the arts/museums/performances. Do-it-yourselfer, handy with tools/computers, like to cook and have collected some good recipes. Believe quality relationships are built on friendship, respect and honest/open communications. Prefer healthy living/lean diet, moderate exercise...
I'm mostly attracted to ladies who have arrived at a similar conclusion that divorced/single life is good but not the same quality as a committed relationship with sharing... She will be an honest, down-to-earth, ethical, understanding open-minded person, as I try to be.
I'm looking for a friend/partner who values respect, intelligence, honesty, humor, loyalty, a good heart, open communication, someone you love waking up with each morning and going to bed with each night and who likes/loves animals. I also want to have that special chemistry with someone, which is like trying to find a small needle in a large haystack.
I'm interested in meeting someone reasonably local to become acquainted, catch a local movie/dinner sometimes on short notice, and really get to know her...
Might this person be you? If so, drop me a line...

Meet a man from Mission Hills, United States. I am fun, adventurous and active. There will seldom be a dull moment. I love the beach. My ideal date is both cute and witty. She may even be a little sarcastic. She prefers doing things together, as opposed to alone. But she cares about others, especially those less well off. She is a great conversationalist. When we go to dinner, we lose track of time because we're too into each other talking (and listening). Nothing is forced. It's all effortless. She likes the sunset and the ocean and to spend the day just hanging out at the beach.

Date someone special from Mission Hills, United States. I'm not looking for Prince Charming or to be rescued, although that could be interesting! I am looking for an honest man, with family values and a good sense of humor. I enjoy doing so many things, I'm sure we could find something we both mutually enjoy together.
Read this last year. "There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like no one's watching"
I think it is great when anyone takes pride in what they do or gets enjoyment from it... I love a smile, a hug, etc. I also realize that there are times along the way when it may be hard to find a reason to smile, that, maybe is the time for a few words of support, hand holding, a few tears maybe, and a shoulder to lean on.
Everyone loves having fun. I'd hope that my special someone, enjoys dinner and a movie, BBQing with family or friends, listening to music, concerts, a nice walk, staying home relaxing, or just sharing what's gone on during the day. I enjoy cooking, gardening, crafts, reading... pretty much anything. I love going to watch my grandchildren play sports, going to cruise night, classic car shows, NASCAR racing, watching a baseball or basketball game, etc. I prefer to be casual (not sloppy). I'm comfortable in jeans, shorts, or skirts to dressy dresses.
