Date women from United States / California / Sebastopol, 66 year old

Date someone special from Sebastopol, United States. My name really is Babe.
I was called Babe from the time I was born. The government however calls me Mary. I have been self supporting since 1980 and do not want a live in situation. Do not need a sugar daddy and I am not a nurse with a purse. I have had a few wonderful men in my life. Looking for my last great love. Hope the best is yet to come. Hurry, the older I get..the faster time goes.
I love to travel. My last trip was in Jan when a lady friend and I did the Panama Canal .Best part of the trip was zip lining in Costa Rico. The year I turned 60 I climbed Diamond Head with my best lady friend who has since moved to Florida.
I am a country girl and my family has been in this county since 1906.
Earlier this spring, I processed 2 lugs of apricots. Made my first marmalade. Boy was that yummy.
The accomplishment I am most proud of is raising my son.
What do I want in a man? Kind, gentle, ,proud of his life, happy to have me on his arm, and yes..successful. Life is so short, so fragile we should enjoy what time we have left.
I am not much of a drinker; I would rather have dessert. I do make a great designated driver.
Not a health "nut" but health minded. I do not eat fast food, processed foods, hot spice foods, soda etc. I do love food. Garlic is a must. Favorite places to eat: Cucino Paradiso, Nicks Cove, East West Cafe, Mai Vietnam, Fresh Choice
Ok, not sure about this whole computer dating thing but I am ready. (right).
Check out my picture. I is what I is. The man in the photo is my x father in law. Will love him until the day one of us leaves this earth.

Meet a woman from Sebastopol, United States. I'm funny and smart, caring and intuitive, a good listener, compassionate, and blessed with a pretty nice smile. Gardening keeps me sane – it is a respite and refuge, a way to be present and focused on what needs doing at that moment.
While I tend to dress casually (Sonoma county is that kind of place) I can dress up when the occasion presents itself!
I’ve discovered that I have fun watching birds – which you can do just about anywhere (the only wildlife we see daily…). Having lived here for almost 20 years, I’ve become involved in local community issues, with focus on viable economies, support for the people who grow our food...etc. I really enjoy live blues and am lucky enough to have some great venues close by to do that, which can often involve dancing!
I raised my daughter by myself from age 11 on, and I must say, sheРІР‚в„ўs a peach! Family and friends are very important to me.
IРІР‚в„ўm curious and like to dabble, explore, research and learn. IРІР‚в„ўm a writer and need to be creative, and over the years IРІР‚в„ўve found that can take many forms.
I'm a co-leader of our regional Slow Food chapter, and member of an alliance working to create a sustainable food system.
Laughter is an amazing gift we human beings have - and I want more of it!
IРІР‚в„ўve traveled some in the past, Mexico, Hawaii, France, Greek islands, and this fall it is Italy, so IРІР‚в„ўve been taking Italian classes.
What do I want in a relationship? A lover and friend, someone I know I can talk to, share adventures with; who’s open, honest AND passionate, with light and humor in his eyes, willing to take a risk now and then - deep breaths…
When we're together, we're both the better for it. We can be supporting, uplifting, buoyant and frivolous, carefree and serious, intense and relaxed - yin and yang. balance....
I hope I meet you soon

Date a soulmate from Sebastopol, United States. I'm quirky, opinionated, can laugh myself sick, ready to travel. Hard working, smart, compassionate, honest. Believe that we all need to give back. I write and think, argue and forgive. Love conversation sometimes...not one lecturing but real back and forth conversation. Hate the telephone, love the Internet. Not hard on the eyes. Warm and grouchy, but have a great sense of humor about the whole mess of life.
