Date women from United States / California / Chowchilla, 58 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Wow, describing oneРІР‚в„ўs self is not an easy task, but here we go:
I consider myself easy-going and flexible. My friends say I have a great sense of humor and I make them laugh. IРІР‚в„ўm at that stage in my life when the kids are on their own and only need my help occasionally. IРІР‚в„ўve been a widow for several years and now ready to recalibrate my place in the world. IРІР‚в„ўm no longer someoneРІР‚в„ўs wife or mom, but someone that is making changes and ready to take risks.
I enjoy all types of music (well, maybe not rap) either listening or dancing or attending performances from rock concerts to symphonies. I like to go to the coast or mountains. Over the years I have packed on the extra pounds, but it hasn't stopped me from going on beginner hikes in Yosemite, white-water rafting or participating in a walk/run (I've done a 10K twice and very happy to not only cross the finish line, but not be among the last few). There are so many more things I'd like to try, like learning how to golf or winter activities. So, you'd have to be a patient person and willing to teach me. Truthfully, I am open to almost any suggestion as I am ready for new experiences from outdoor activities to dining.
I had a wonderful marriage that was cut short unexpectedly, but now IРІР‚в„ўm ready for companionship. I would like to just hang-out together and see where it goes.
