Date men from United States / Arizona / San Carlos, 47 year old

Date a man from Arizona, United States. I was raised in the Bay Area, but I've lived all over the USA.I have actually lived in every timezone in the US and Hawaii! At one point I was approached to move to Anchorage, well that's the only timezone I haven't lived in, sorry no wearing sunglasses at midnight for me! Plus I wanted to stay close to my family, where else can you appreciate so much, beach, city, and of course Tahoe! I like snowboarding, travel, a good deli sandwich, going out for dinner and having a great bottle of wine (beer), live shows, antiques, rare books, old cars and my values dictate that nothing is free so if you want it you better work for it. I believe in family and all it stands for, I love America and animals, not always in that order, and would like to hang out with the right person....is that so wrong!
I tried my luck at opening a Vintage Bookstore, alas back to work, well at least I tried! Damn Kindle!
Favorite quote! "There is but one rule of conduct for a man-to do the right thing. The cost may be dear in money, in friends, in influence, in labor, in a prolonged and painful sacrifice; but the cost not to do right is far more dear: you pay in the integrity of your manhood, in honor, in truth, in character. You forfeit your soul's content, and for a timely gain you barter the infinities." Archer G. Jones
Now that is good stuff!
