Date men from United States / California / Chico, 56 year old

Date someone special from United States. I’m a good guy who finds entertainment value and amusement in everybody and everyday things. It’s been said that �small minds are easy amused’ but then I hope that one of my friends world challenge that by saying �small mindedness and you’ should never be used in the same sentence.
My �default’ position is �happy’ and I am seldom disappointed I have few expectations from others and I find that they are usually exceeded. I have no tolerance for racism, sexism and intolerance but beyond that I give people free rein. I find myself embracing those who are inherently good and brings those around them up a notch. I guess I hope some of this rubs off on me!
My kids, new places, good books and entertaining movies completes my day away from the office. While I’m not sure I’m a big �people person’ I do enjoy going out with friends and family. I probably say that I’m not a people person because and am total comfortable with myself, with my kids or a couple friends walking thru the vineyard, quading to the creek or starting a bonfire at sunset. I enjoy being outside in �my’ foothills and find myself doing this more than going downtown and meeting new people. Am I complacent with this?? – who knows, it’s not for me to say but it’s all good and there’s plenty of it to share!

Meet a man from United States. I like to keep my spirit of adventure alive by doing something I have not done before. Last summer I went to three different county fairs. At one I found a jewelry maker from Peru and bought a natural fiber cotton shirt with Peruvian art work. I took a trip to Brazil that was remarkable and enlightening. There, I traveled to a small mountain town reminiscent of a European village with cobble stoned streets and beautiful natural surroundings of forested hills and farms. I have enjoyed traveling across country in the US too. Often my trips are combined with contemplation in nature and photographing it. Or it could be a discovering a new place to eat in town, but I do like variety. I like to be purposeful through projects that help people to learn and grow. I enjoy making friends laugh with a witty observation.
Now that my children are out on their own I would like to meet a woman who can share my adventures. Some one to take care of and embrace with affection and respect. I am seeking one special woman with a sense of youthfulness to connect with on an emotional and spiritual level and through shared activities and interests.
