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

Date people from United States. I am an intellectual and look for intelligence in others, but find value regardless of intellect in all peoples.
I am spiritual in my connection to the earth whether animal, vegetable or mineral. I recently returned from a 20 day trip to the southwest and walked in the foot prints of the Anasazi who lived a thousand years ago among the cliffs and mesas of Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico. I visited the Pueblos of New Mexico and Hopi Mesas. Although each is unique, there is spiritual connection between the ancestors of the land and those that walk in their foot steps today.
My world is simple in a complex way and my hope is to discover and develop a relationship of companionship with another soul to share these simple complexities.
If you do romance and believe in romantic evenings and encounters. I am likely not your match. Romance is made up of a series of moments over time consisting of trust, honesty, pride, caring, affection and most of all respect leading to a loving relationship. This process must involve both parties and require joint commitment.
Although my profile may indicates I live in Sloughhouse, CA, I reside in Rancho Murieta which is 25 miles east of Sacramento on CA 16.
