Date men and women from United States / California / Lodi, 71 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am new to this Match.Com site and to the electronic process of meeting a Lady. The last time I dated was 18 years ago so my social skills may be a little rusty.
I enjoy a casual laid back lifestyle. I am sincere, dependable, honest, friendly and inquisitive. I much prefer a face to face meeting, the facial expressions and eyes tell a lot in conversation. I am not interested in playing the field, no one night stands and I don't do the bar scene. No drugs. I enjoy wandering the back roads, antique stores, yard sales, estate sales and collecting nautical "stuff". I enjoy creating and building things at home. I spend most of my time outdoors. Not a couch potatoe. I enjoy boating and being near water from the coast to the mountains. I enjoy home cooked meals and eating out, no fast food. I am not a golfer, fisherman or hunter. I enjoy all forms of music except Rap and heavy metal style. I enjoy family and have a son and daughter, both live out of state, and grandchildren near and far so time together is very limited. PLEASE, if I interest you and you contact me you MUST have a photo and at least brief profile, Thank You. Without that I delete. We all are old enough to be up front.

Date men and women from California, United States. I am a fairly recent widow. I lost my love to lung cancer in December 09, and really just want someone to go to dinner with, have good conversation and be my best friend. If more comes later that would be wonderful. I was married for over 26 years and am definately looking for a long term relationship as my final goal. One is a very lonely number, and I'm afraid I don't enjoy doing things alone very much. It's much nicer to share, good or bad.
I love my job and truly enjoy helping the students fulfill their dreams. It is very rewarding.
I live alone with my dogs , and have lots of friends, however most of them are married, so now we are in different catogories. I have two grown children. One lives in Oregon and the other in Anthem, AZ. and six grandchildren. Unfortunately, I don't get to see them near as often as I would like.
My dogs are a big part of my life, so my partner would have to be able to accept that. Although my partner would always be number one. Hopefully, I will find someone to love them as much as I do.
As for my partner. I would like someone who looks younger than he is, as I feel I do, has a great sense of humor, is fairly laid back hopfuly without a lot of baggage. He should know how to take care of himself, be fairly good looking for his age, but not a physical fitness nut. I do need to be able to keep up.
I am a happy person who is generally eager to please and know what I want and don't want. I own my own home and am financially stable.
I love to travel and have been on several cruises. Through the Panama Canal, Burmuda and a Mediterranean cruise.
