Date men and women from United States / California / Carlsbad, 76 year old

Date men and women from Carlsbad, United States. Honesty and good humor are the most important attributes for my mate. I am easy-going, flexible and positive enough to be content with lots of situations. I like to travel, do wine tasting, eat out fairly regularly, walk along the beach at sunset, play cards, go shopping, lots of other things. But these are all merely vehicles for building a relationship.
I am not looking for financial support, nor do I need physical assistance - though I'd humbly accept either :o). I'm looking for companionship... someone to travel with (I can pay my own way), someone to dine out with, do other things with. Someone who can share a desire for the good things in life. It's about people, not things. It would be nice to have someone to discuss the day's activities, share family events (yours or mine), get to know each others' friends and family.
One can spend lots of time looking for the exact match; but maybe "Match" allows us to be too picky. When it comes right down to the nitty gritty, there is no perfect mate. So why do we hesitate so much to make the first step. I'm just as guilty of that as the next person. So let's shoot for the best we can find and go from there.
How about a brief meeting... it's the best way to know if there's any "magic". Who knows where it can go from there!
