Date men and women from United States / Arizona / Cave Creek, 56 year old

Date people from United States. I am a retired cop so if you killed your last husband........not good. Have not done the match.com thing in a long time. Tried it in Oregon 5 years ago..... not so great... so hoping this might help me meet some new friends.... I am taking off this year from a job to relax and maybe learn Spanish. And I would like to meet nice girls so I don't have to go to events by myself at a minimum. I am easy to please, so I could be a great guy to hang with.....
I am divorced. Long time ago. Have a 27-year-old daughter getting married in September on the Amalfi coast in Italy. fun!
I lived in Portland, Oregon for most of my life but in December 2010 I made the most expensive impulse buy of my life and bought a wonderful house in Cave Creek. Love my little town.
So I rented my Portland house this year and moved down full time.
I was a cop for more than 20 years ... I have pretty much done anything you can imagine. i have funny stories, insightful stories, and tragic stories. But I try to tell more of the funny ones.
I really like it here in Cave Creek. Would be fun to meet a nice gal here in Phoenix area... I have some wonderful friends and I get invited to fun events, but maybe like you I hate always being the odd cat out with everyone being in couples.
I will be the most honest guy you have ever met. I am a really nice guy. I am loyal, and I really appreciate people doing the same. I don't expect love at first sight, although I do believe in it.
I don't believe every date has to be perfect.... but I think going out on a date is a perfect way to spend a few hours. it is not a made for TV movie, it is life.
I love NASCAR, country music, I carry a gun everyday and I am kinda conservative on many issues. I love going to Phoenix area sporting events.
My dogs are the sun my world revolves around. t.
One of my best buddies met a gal on match and they have been married 3 years. so there you go
That's it for now

Meet a man from United States. The senses;taste,smell,sight,hearing,touch, more? Maybe.When we are on this plane of existence today, these are the gifts we have to share. We dont have time to catch it all, so i try to distill it down to "the best". Art,music,food,exersize are my passions.Love,spirituality and truth are even more important than that! An attitude of gratitude is something i'm trying to learn.If you are art and or music oriented and exercize motivated (tennis anyone?) well i'm not that ugly! oh, yes, humor and sarcasam will get you everywhere.

Date men and women from United States. I am self driven and independent. I don't like to argue and am easy to get along with. However I won't give on basic character issues that are important to me. I am loyal to those I care about and will help them any way I can and wish to see their lives happy. I feel life is to short to worry about insignificant items and try to prioritize issues I encounter as to importance. I have a strong work ethic and am selfsufficient for my basic needs. The outdoors has always fasinated me much more than all the things man made. It is great to be outdoors working or recreating ( is that a word?). I am not much of a mall person but will go on occasion to watch and interact slightly with people just to keep up with trends for informational purposes and also I do a little shopping once in a while.

The out doors , family, freinds, humer, respect for life and being a genuine person, I am a flirt but in fun, love to give a smile and that return smile is gold.
I know what it will take for a gal to turn my head, I'm only going to say, just be your self,

Meet a woman from Cave Creek, United States. I have been in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area for 4 years now and feel like this is where I should be.
I am originally from the Midwest. I grew up in the country in Michigan, in the horse business. Then I spent 15 years living in Chicago. I have found I like both lifestyles but I prefer to live in the country and have access to the city life. I must say I am most comfortable in my jeans and cowboy boots or shorts and a tank top, hanging out with family and friends, having a cup of coffee or a glass of wine on a patio somewhere even if it is in my backyard. Then again it is always fun getting dressed up for a night on the town. Going out to dinner and a movie, live music, theater. Love to Dance - I have become a big fan of country dancing but do not have a partner to practice with.
Family is very important to me and I feel it tells a lot about a person, you do not have to have kids of your own to understand the value of Family. I have two great kids, a son and a daughter who I am very close too. They are young adults now but they never stop being your kids. I see them as much as possible as we are all in different states now but we stay connected. Yes, I am also a Grandma. I have a fantastic 2 yr old grandson - though his parents do not feel that way all the time right now (terrible 2's) and a granddaughter on the way.
I love the outdoors. I enjoy walking, swimming - both for exercise and relaxation and I am also interest in getting in to hiking, just do not know what to lookout for. Traveling, whether it is a long weekend just to get away or to some exotic location and relax. I love exploring new places and finding great local establishments wherever I am.
I hope to find someone that is down to earth, easy going and is comfortable just being themselves. We would need to have common interests as I am hoping to find someone to spend time with, while at the same time it is ok to have different interests and be able to enjoy them as well. I believe in chemistry - of all forms - there has to be a mutual attraction and we both feel it.
