Date men from United States / California / Bonny Doon, 73 year old

Date single man from Bonny Doon, United States. I want to get involved in a frindship that eventually becomes a perminant relationship. I'm a retired Silicon Valley engineer (BSME Santa Clara U). I like doing lots of things like taking scenic hikes and walks, gardining, biking, going to a good synphony, jazz concerts, or a good play or musical and a movie now and then, nice restarants. A little traveling to interesting places. Always interested in new activities accept for sky diving and bungy jumping. Your on your own there. I like dogs and cats and other animals and suport many humane organizations. I have a strong tendency toward vegatarinisum, but not religous about it. I also have a strong tendency toward supporting invironmental things. I don't like bars and night clubs and feel very uncomfortaable in them. However, a glass of wine or beer now and then is enjoyable. A party animal I am not.
I live in the Bonnydoon area of Santa Cruz on my own ranch (actually it is onyl 2.5 acres) with my dog Charley Charley is really tired of looking at me and would like a nice lady to come along to scratch his ears now and then. Charley is a small terrier.
I am 6 feet tall, 160 pounds, blondish hair, in good health. Much younger looking thd feeling than my actual age. If not you can through me back in the lake.
I think the glue that holds a relationship toghether through good times and bad is trust and respect for each other. Also, two people that gives consideration for each other's feelings, opinions, principles, morals, wants and needs. I like people that are on the conservitive side of life, a little laid back, but likes to enjoy life and have fun too. Someone with good reasoning ability.
Also, the lady of my dreams should have 10 million dollars -- Just kidding, just kidding.
I never had kids and don't want to get in a situation where I would be getting involved with a family with complex kinds of situations. I'm kind of a laid back easy going person and don't think I could deal with complicated family types of problems. Someone with just normal easy problems would be nice.
The picture of me was taken, by me,(thats why it's so bad) a couple of months ago, so "what you sees, is what you gets"
If the above discritption sounds reasonable, I would like to hear from you. If not,may all good things always come your way.
