Date single man from California, United States. For now I will just say I am honest, faithful and despite my age young at heart. I have friends that are musicians and often go to their shows. I like most music but tend to favor country, both traditional and modern. I haven't done any camping or fishing for several years but would enjoy getting back to it.
