Date someone special from California, United States. I'm creative, accomplished, happy and content with who I am....looking for similar characteristics in my mate. I have numerous interests and hobbies that constantly beckon and an occupation that keeps me quite busy, especially since I live where I work. I'm seeking a grounded, self-reliant woman who loves to laugh and doesn't take herself too seriously and is open to new adventures. An appreciation for life, the night sky and creative endeavors are usually my focus. My children are grown and I love being a Dad. An interest in wine, cooking and art a plus. Integrity and honesty are a must in a partner in order to evolve into soul mates. If your primary purpose in being here is to find someone to take care of you, I'm probably not your man. If you easily laugh at yourself we could have a contest.
