Date women from United States / Alabama / Foley, 69 year old

Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. I retired from an upper management position with an international company in Atlanta. Being originally from Biloxi I talked my husband into coming back to the Gulf Coast. We first settled in Gulf Shores then moved to Bon Secour. He passd away in 2005. After a period of adjustment I have become very involved in the community doing some volunteer work and some fun social things with women. I belong to a book club and movie group. I took a Master Gardening course to help me with my yard that is too big but love working in it. I have been taking line dancing classes for the past month which is really a lot of fun and great exercise. I have done some traveling, Hong Kong, being one of my favorite trips but found Paris to be beautiful.
I like people and have a lot of friends, single women as well as married couples but I do miss male companionship. I enjoy cooking, sitting on my deck with a glass of wine, going out to dinner, taking a boat ride. I think short trips are fun. Have been to the wooden boat show in Madisonville La. a couple of times, visited Natchez, and like going back to Atlanta occationally. Was in San Antonio in early May for the first time which was fun.
Would like to meet someone to share part of my life with who believes family is important, is intelligent, has a sense of curiosity and a sense of humor.
