Date men from United States / California / Lakeport, 46 year old

Date single man from Lakeport, United States. I'm a positive, loyal and faithful man. I am optimistic, trusting and affectionate. I'm the guy who finds the best in every situation. I support my partner in whatever she does. I'm very goal oriented. Once I set my sights on something...consider it done. I've always had a career that kept me outside and physically fit. As an ex Navy Rescue Swimmer....I am confident. Yes...and "Can do" come naturally to me. My career affords me an hour a day for fitness training and I use it. I love my job, but it's my commute that's some times amazing. I'll tell you about it if you are curious.
I love to garden. I live and eat healthy. I've run a couple of Ultra Marathons and would love a partner that might train with me on long or short runs. I love ethnic food and enjoy learning how to cook it. I try to cook a new recipe from scratch at least every other week. Soups have been a favorite lately. Tom Kha Gai was my last.
I have two beautiful, brilliant, boys ages six and eight. I love being a father. I love hiking, backpacking kayaking and playing sports with them. I have always believed that adopting a child would be my greatest accomplishment and expected to someday be surrounded at the dinner table by children of every color.
I am looking for someone who makes my heart beat a little faster when we are together and I miss when we're apart. I would love to meet someone who is affectionate and passionate about life. Someone who likes to stay fit and live healthy is essential. A running partner would probably be irresistable. I look forward to a long term relationship with a woman that would become part of my family. A dream partner would be confident and curious about other cultures. She might go backpacking in a skirt (since I'm dreaming) but not be afraid to get a little dirty. She would look forward to a cup of coffee together in the morning and appreciate a good micro brew or glass of wine at sunset. She is self sufficient or is at least on track to getting there. I get about two months of vacation each year and I have the travel bug again.... care to join me?
