Date a woman from California, United States. I am a retired educator, who enjoys cooking/entertaining, gardening, dining out, movies, book clubs, walking, camping by the seashore, astronomy and going to indoor/outdoor concerts. Also, I enjoy quiet days/evenings at home: working in my garden/yard, writing, visiting with family and friends. I still work occasionally. I have been most fortunate to have had support from faith, family, and friends when life challenges came about and now have reached a point in my life where I can "give back" through volunteering and helping others.
