Date a soulmate from California, United States. I enjoy nature (a lot!). I have solo camped on 4 islands of the Channel Island Nat'l Park. I have been to the Grand Cyn. for camping/hiking (the end of last October...it was cold). I am always ready to go camping (especially in a tent). I go regularly to the gym. I lift free weights at the gym 3 to 4 X's a week. I am in really good shape for a 56 yr. old woman. I am a docent at Lotusland...been there 3 yrs.; the garden is so beautiful. I did my 11th consecutive i Madonnari in Santa Barbara this past Memorial day week-end. I do an 8' X 12' (my own art work). One of my favorite things to do...doodle art on the ground. I guess I have some primative aspects to my nature. A bit of the little kid at play in the dirt in me. Fun. My dog is TDI certified and goes 1X a week to SB Cottage Hospital to do pet assisted therapy. We do PAT at the Ojai Rehab Center every other Thursday. It is important to volunteer in the community. Dewey, my French Bull Dog, makes everyone happy with his own special brand of humor. I dance (ballroom) at least 3hrs a week. I also do Latin dances and Swing. It'll be 2 yrs. this January that I started to dance. I am not an accomplished dancer, but I do enjoy it. I teach art to an autistic gentleman..I find it very rewarding. I have had 6 solo art shows in SB and have been in many group shows. I am mostly retired but not tired. I'm the kind of gal that'll enjoy watching a foiotball or basketball game with you.
