Date someone special from San Ramon, United States. I enjoy being active. I Jazzercise 4 days a week and love it. I've been doing it for 10 years. I like almost all kinds of music and love to dance. I really enjoy spending time with friends and family (I have 2 great brothers). Unfortunately, my daughters and grandchildren live out of state. I wish they were closer, but it gives me an excuse to go visit which I do often.
I like dining in or out, movies, theatre, etc. etc. Love going to Tahoe, but I'm not a winter skier. I've tried it and would be willing to try again, just not with my brother as my instructor. I'm sure he was trying to kill me, but he'll never admit it. At this point, I rather sit around the fire sipping brandy, or go when the weather is good and do some hiking. I enjoy staying active i.e. exercising, walking, etc. I like to try new things, so I've tried parasailing, walking "up" a waterfall (Dunn's River Falls in Jamaica--check it out on the internet) and would love to try zip-lining when I get the chance.
Went on my first cruise last year through the Panama Canal and just got back from my second, this time to the Southern Caribbean (Aruba and Curacao). I went snorkeling in Aruba and will definitely do that again. It was a beautiful experience.
I'm a very open and honest person. I don't play games and I don't like people who do. I'm personally and financially independent. I've been married twice. I have a daughter from my first marriage and a step-daughter from my second. My first husband and I were married 15 years and get along quite well, though that wasn't always the case. My second husband and I were married 20 years. He was a wonderful man with an incredible sense of humor who made me laugh every day. I had known for 10 years before we got married; we started out as friends. He passed away about a year and a half ago.
About the one I'm looking for...
A great sense of humor is really important to me. I love to laugh, even at myself.
