Date men and women from United States / Colorado / Westcliffe, 59 year old

Date men and women from Westcliffe, United States. About me and who I am looking for:
When people first meet me they might think me a bit serious, with a quiet demeanor. It doesn’t take long, though, to learn I’m actually quite talkative and friendly. I like to have fun, and I have a big sense of humor. To those characteristics, I can add patience, understanding, curiosity and intelligence. To my relationship I will bring love, caring, consideration and playfulness, and would look for those characteristics in my partner.
I am a perpetual student, someone who just can’t get enough of life’s mysteries and the things I can learn from exploring the planet. I love discussing the great ideas and appreciate that in others, especially the one who will become my soulmate. The idea of she and I contemplating life and the universe as the waves pound the beaches, or gazing up into the heavens at night feeling the immensity of it all – well, that appeals to my imagination and desire.
I’d like to spend the rest of my life with an intelligent, confident, cheerful and well-traveled lady. She’ll enjoy my quiet place in the mountains and share my love of the outdoors. Good looks and a trim shape will attract me, as will her innate curiosity, and a desire to ask the complex questions, to join me on my adventures around the world and into the mind.
I am flexible in my work, financially secure and can retire at any point, if I so desire. What about you?
