Date women from United States / California / Santa Cruz, 50 year old

Date a woman from United States. The words and phrases that would best describe me would include: hard-working (but I still make time for play and relaxing), curious, loyal (sometimes to a fault), whimsical, quirky, paradoxically both shy and social (you'll have to find out more about that later), opinionated (but open to other views), loving, empathetic, witty (at least I think so), and competitive (in games, work, hopefully not with you).
I am an avid runner, but I want to clarify that I am not a fast runner nor an award winning race type runner. I am ridiculously slow, but I have endurance and can go the distance. I run because it relaxes me, challenges me, and lets me explore the outside world. I enjoy good conversation and really want to meet someone who is informed and can talk about both current events and more philosophical subjects. I want someone who really wants to know me and be known by me. Seems obvious but hard to actually find. I am looking for someone who enjoys long conversations over a good meal, going to a movie and eating junior mints, standing up and dancing at concerts, singing in your car, etc. I also want someone who is equally content hanging around the house together.
What I want in a man is someone who is confident with who he is. He works hard but can make things besides work (like me) a priority. A man who knows how to love and will allow himself to be loved. Someone who can be silly and laugh at himself. A man with a bit of an edge about him.
There is much more to me and what I am looking for, maybe you will want to find out.

Meet someone special from United States. Happy Honey Girl!
I like to leave my job in Silicon Valley finance behind each day when I head over the hill to my organic farm or yoga classes in Santa Cruz. In the past IРІР‚в„ўve enjoyed traveling, windsurfing, cooking, skiing, snowshoeing, camping, wine tasting, running, biking, cheese making and lots of other activities. Right now in my spare time IРІР‚в„ўm mostly focused on growing my farm beyond bee keeping, ducks cider/wine making and the orchard.... I love summer and fall when I get to harvest honey from my bee hives and invite friends over for the apple and pear harvest. Spending time with my family and friends is very important to me and I'm happy to have so many many life long friends.
If you are looking for a smart, confident girl friend for outdoor activities - IРІР‚в„ўm game. IРІР‚в„ўd love to learn to sail, surf or make wine.
If you are super smart, happy and passionate, I can't wait to meet you.
