Date men from United States / California / Half Moon Bay, 67 year old

Date a man from Half Moon Bay, United States. I look forward to spending time with a woman who is adventuresome, fun and upbeat, who is spontaneous and one who will in time, become my best friend. Relationships are very important to me. My interests are many and varied. I enjoy good music from jazz to classical, good books, the theatre, good restaurants, museums, the great artists and stunning sunsets. I live by the ocean where the scene changes daily. For me, life is never dull. I travel frequently and enjoy photography, fly fishing, museums and exhibits, experiencing different cultures and meeting new people. I also guide fly fishermen or women on one of the many beautiful rivers in Oregon in the summer and fall.
I cook and host parties frequently, especially on July 4th when the fireworks appear in front of my deck. Intimate dinners are close to the top my fun list as are dinners and the theatre in San Francisco or a day watching the Giants play baseball. My nature is to be active, engaging and sometimes generous to a fault. I have an abiding respect for people of integrity and I love true characters. I know we travel down this road only once and believe we should make the most of every opportunity for we shall not make this journey again. There is after all, an expiration date. I believe in strong family ties, trusting relationships and understand that life is not always easy. I also believe that life is good when we allow it to be. I have lived by the ocean all my life and am proud of my contributions to my community.
Sharing experiences is important and rewarding to me. Of course the chemistry has to be right and one would know that early on. To say that my group of friends is eclectic is an understatement. I especially find characters fascinating and fun to be around. I believe creative people are a special gift to society. While many people own cameras, few are really good photographers, with notable exceptions. I know artists who never took a lesson who produce some truly remarkable work. I think that relationships travel on a parallel plane. When relationships work, positive energy flows and that is the essence of meaningful companionship.
I enjoy movies and dinner on weekends. Otherwise I might be out taking photographs, tending a garden full of roses bushes, watching a ball game, listening to Jazz the Bach next to the ocean or off trekking through Golden Gate Park or Muir Woods.
My favorite contemporary authors are: Ken Follett, Nelson DeMille, Richard North Patterson, Patrick O’Brien, Frank Herbert, James Michner and W.E. B. Griffin, Steinbeck, Hemmingway and a dozen others. My three current favorite books are Michner’s The Source and Follett’s Pillars of the Earth and World Without End.
Travel, both domestic and foreign is something I look forward to each year. It is always more fun with companion, do you agree? Finally, I view each day as a gift and try to glean as much enjoyment from it as humanly possible. So, if we share common interests, please let me know and we can discuss it over a cup of coffee.
