Date men from United States / California / Chico, 35 year old

Date a soulmate from Chico, United States. No joke, I'm simply looking to meet and spend time with people that interest me. If that means "just friends", great. I am very busy with my regular job, my family business, and other commitments. I simply want to meet people that I want to include in my life or get to know better.
I love to travel to new places and, as frequently as possible, go back to the deep South, a place very close to my heart. I've lived in California and Louisiana. I have a pretty dry sense of humor and have been known to be called sarcastic on occasion. Ok, that's probably understating it a bit.
I enjoy spending time with friends and family and am very easy going. I'd like to meet a someone who's intelligent, loves good conversation, and enjoys traveling to new and familiar places.
I love to cook, it's how I can decompress from my day. I very much enjoy the outdoors and sports. I'm a huge LSU fan (hello! -- southern2777!). Admittedly, I'm not great about talking about myself. So if you want to learn more, e-mail me and maybe we can meet up for coffee, lunch, etc.
