Date men from United States / California / Santa Rosa, 67 year old

Date someone special from Santa Rosa, United States. I am in my mid sixties and in good health with an energetic body. I love fishing, golf and going to the coast,. I love my vegetable garden, and fruit trees yet I am not into flowers, but perhaps roses.

A good sense of humor would high on my list of preference, along with the pride she shows in herself by keeping in shape, mentally as well as physically.

Meet a man from Santa Rosa, United States. I'm on Match again to see what fate may offer for a companion on this unpredictable journey to somewhere I'm calling Home. I 'm taking some time (i'm not in a hurry) to look for a stable, secure, gracious, and energetic woman, who feels as comfortable fly fishing a river, as going to the DeYoung for an Impressionist show. I hope you're self-sufficient, but still wanting an intimate companionship based on mutual respect, trust, and attraction. I've already met several friends thru Match but am realist enough to know that most of us are holding out for that unknowable factor called "chemistry".
I'm twice divorced, with 2 adult sons, and 2 grandkids who are an ongoing part of my life. Given my record, I'm not inclined toward marriage, but not opposed to it either. I'm an architect still working on turning our imperiled planet towards a sustainable course, and hopefully you would share this passion. I consider stewardship of Earth the most important 'business' we humans need to be doing, but unfortunately it has become politicized. Our spaceship Earth, with its very thin atmosphere, is all we will ever have for a home, and no amount of wealth, power or status will save anyone from the ecological collapse and human tragedy staring us in the face. The task is difficult, since we have to find a way to overcome the greed and hubris of an economic system that demands constant growth for shareholder profit, while overlooking the obvious limit of the planet's material resources. These are dire words for a personality profile, but this is who I am and I can only say that it takes a sense of optimism, mixed with humor, to know the gravity of this dilemma, and still wake up every morning, grateful for the opportunity to improve the situation.
Should you find these opinions worth discussing, I hope you will respond with an email for more specifics; and then a phone call, with the possiblity of meeting in person, which is worth thousands of words and pictures. I'm a good conversationalist, which means listening when you speak, hearing what you say, and knowing that you're not asking me to solve your problems. I live daily in the belief that there is someone out there that is a perfect fit for me, and also looking for that missing companion. All great unions in life begin with words, followed by acts of affection and respect, and isn't that what we're looking for?
Best wishes in your search

Meet a soulmate from Santa Rosa, United States. singular record of a singular life-reflected in a representative selection is from three decades of notes and memory. I was born in New York City of first generation parents. Their parents, Russian Jews, fled Czarist Russia to come to America at the turn of the 20th century. The streets of New York were still lined with local shops and sidewalk vendors selling produce. The cobblestone accentuated the sounds of the horse’s hooves and wagon wheels of the ragman, iceman, and knife sharpening van. There was no color TV, in fact, there was no TV. It was a time before calculators, computers, and cell phones. In the 50’s at age eight I remember moving to Brooklyn about a mile from Coney Island. A breeze would pick-up after six, while strolling down the streets in the early evening all the apartments had their windows open, and the air was filled with the sound of the radios tuned to the Brooklyn Dodger’s game. They were lovingly referred to as the Bums.
My father worked in New York City with the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). Dad graduated from George Washington Law which at the time I hadn’t realized was some feat considering he held down a full time job and had a devoted wife and two kids, me being the youngest by four years. My parents were high school sweethearts and remained together for sixty years til death did them part. I figure they’re probably together again – just not here. As a child, I probably suffered from a lack of neglect, and even now at times; although puerile, I still reminisce and miss my childhood and the protection afforded by my parents.
Every few years we continued to move as my father was promoted, and I soon found myself on Long Island entering high school in the late fifties. That entailed: cars and dating, sports, color TV, and Rock & Roll. My music teacher was a golfer. At school, one day, he told us, Rock & Roll was a fad and wouldn’t last more than a couple of years. I’m not sure if he was a musician, �cause most- the-time he talked about golf, maybe he’d done better teaching golf to wolves. In any case, this new music was a spiritual tonic to us, as if by divine intervention, the stuffy and straight Eisenhower years were developing some liberated zones. Our family was like so many families of immigrant society, measured, in large part, by one’s education and position in the community. My father, as a civil servant, made it clear that we were loath to make any excursions outside the lines he and the government had drawn. This decree was a kin to official papers that read: Do not spindle, fold, tear, deface, staple, mutilate, clip, bend, fold, color, crease, annotate, or copy, but destiny awaited. Although, not before completing 18 years of school two degrees and dropped from Medical School a few semesters early. I’d had enough formal education. I’d had enough suits and ties. I’d had enough.
An unalloyed joy was in the air; as if an Arcadian spirit of summer had taken us into a new era. Welcome to the 60’s. There seemed to be a vivid mobilization of spiritual energy along with intellectual charlatanry in a most affected manner, but who cared. I didn’t. Indulgences became a way of life. It transcended age, sex, race all manners of boundaries set in place by society. It was a new ideological exploration transported by a new faith and purpose. The infinite horizons beckon us toward better conduct, better lives and nobler visions. Of course, having spent most of my life in school and na?ve, separating the apparent from the real, wasn’t an option. The euphoria of this free wheeling 60’s swept me away. The idea that the moral temper of the times needed tempering never occurred to me, least wise, not until many years later.
