Date women from United States / Alabama / Anderson, 68 year old

Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. I am grateful for life, happiness, and good health. I have my passport and I love to travel. I traveled to France, Germany, and Switzerland. I was fortunate to have friends and family to visit on my trip. I was also fortunate to be able to travel with my good friends. I also enjoy traveling in the United States, I am looking forward to traveling to Tennessee next summer in my friends motor home. I also like hiking on the local trails and camping in our beautiful parks. I enjoy a Sunday breakfast and a good conversation, an afternoon movie, or a nice Sunday drive. I am learning to paint, it is a fun new adventure. I love art and visiting craft shows. I enjoy going to the Cascade Theater and watching TV at home.
I would like to find a gentleman, soft spoken, yet energetic. Someone that likes to play games (like Cribbage), have long conversations over dinner, someone who laughs. I do not care for swearing or vulgar talk, I enjoy being treated like a lady, I am old fashioned in some ways and up to date in others. People should treat each other with mutual respect and kindness at all times.

Born and raised in California. Would like to see the rest of the USA while physically able. Maybe we could take a cruise or fly to somewhere adventurous. I would love to RV the USA. Stop and fish or dabble my feet in a cool mountain stream. I like to gold pan, I have a portable sluice box. Do you have anything you haven't done in your bucket list? Maybe we could do it together. I would love to go to Sweden to see the alps. . Australia to see kangaroos and the beautiful coast. Washington DC? I have been to Alaska, great fishing,. Took a cruise and a land trip. Been to Israel I don't care to cook anymore. Tired of my own cooking. Maybe we could share that task. If you like photography we would have a lot of fun.
If you golf...I can learn. If you paint, , I can learn.
I love spring, with all the new fresh leaves and sweet smelling blossoms. Fall is beautiful too with the beautiful colors and the smell of rain. Winters I do not enjoy, my arthritis is a pretty good weatherman. unless I am in a nice home and able to look outside at the snow covered trees , with a nice fire going in the fire place and you to snuggle up to. But summer I could do without...115 degrees is a much. Winters with black ice are not my cup of tea. But i do love snowmen. I love to travel and would love to be a snow bird. I like dancing and holding you close. Movies are fun with a big refillable popcorn. Walking on the river trail, holding your hand and watching the geese fly buy is great. Fishing in a quiet cove of the lake with you helping put the bait on my hook. Swimming together, me in my life jacket , floating by your side. Marshmallows roasting on a campfire..not too many, remember the cholesterol Life is fun.
teach me to golf and i will go with you. If you paint, show me how. If you love photography, I do to.
