Date men and women from United States / Alabama / Alpine, 66 year old

Date single man from Alpine, United States. Honesty, integrity and supporting each other are critical in a close relationship. Being open, sharing your emotions and intimacy are just as important.
I am very proud of my three grown children and five wonderful grandsons. Also, I am grateful for supportive friends and my good health.
When I lived and worked in Tehran, Iran in 1977 and 1978 (the Shah was exiled in Jan 1979), I was a computer programming instructor. It was very interesting to educate the Iranians from the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare on the western programming logic process.
I enjoy many outdoor activities including swimming, playing sports and hiking. Especially when an exciting view from a hilltop, mountain top, lakeside or ocean side is included. Daily, I appreciate the view from my home which includes the Cleveland National Forest. My three-acre property has more than 60 trees of 8 different varieties. I believe many of my interests and values are a result of achieving the highest rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts as a teenager.
I enjoy visiting historical locations, museums, and art exhibits. I like viewing paintings and photographs. One of my special interests are photos taken in the late 1800s and the early 1900s,
I have traveled to many parts of the world including New Zealand (2), Tahiti (2), Japan(2), China (3), Australia, Vietnam, Bangkok, Iran, Morocco, Central America, many countries in Europe and many of the states in the USA including Alaska and Hawaii. And I still look forward to more traveling.
I believe in helping charities in multiple ways including financially and with your time. I also think recycling and protecting our environment are important to us as individuals and the world.
I enjoy listening to all types of music and reading for enlightenment.
I am interested in a passionate woman that wants to share her life interests and also is willing to share mine.
