I had a boat, miss it terribly. Love the water.
Love to cook but I am just as comfortable at home sending my guy to the BBQ to cook up some food, as I am in an elegant restaurant.
I am not into the loud nightclub scene, wouldn't mind a small piano bar however where you can sit and talk and sip a martini!.
I was honest about my age..many women aren't .
if you are too timid to send a message, don't send a wink, it doesn't mean anything (does it?).

Meet someone special from United States. I enjoy a variety of experiences, some active and some passive. I have a lot of energy and enjoy an active lifestyle. However, I also like to read, watch nature ( ocean waves, stars, hummingbirds) and engage in meaningful conversations. I have a good sense of humor, and I appreciate witticisms. I maintain a positive outlook on life and people,and I value my family and friends. I pride myself on being fair, compassionate, and always willing to learn. I want to constantly grow and change for the better, yet stay true to my ideals. I am a woman of faith, both in religion and in the possibilities that exist in life. I am trustworthy and honest, and I value this in others. I am able to be independent, yet also not afraid to commit. I am affectionate, but not looking for a one-night stand. I love travel, and would like to explore new places and share the experience with the right person. I have a lot of free time, since I am a teacher, but I enjoy my work and look forward to each day.
I am looking for someone with a sense of humor, vitality for life, honest values, a sense of adventure, and variety of interests. I love intelligent conversation and the possibility of interchanges of ideas without feelings of hostility. I have no preconceived ideas of what makes a perfect match. Certainly, there must be some things in common, but I think that some differences help each of us to grow and fill in the spaces. I guess that I would be attracted to someone who is positive, confident, warm, with a sense of humor, but who can also engage in serious and intelligent discussions; someone who likes to travel, and can be spontaneous and flexible..

Date a woman from United States. Who am I and who am I looking for? Such a simple question that is so complicated to answer. To get myself started I'll quote some of my youngest daughter's recent text message to me --- "You know what? You are AMAZING! You raised 4 kids, half a dozen grandchildren and put yourself through school - while getting stellar grades. You take care of your parents - even when they're super mean to you, and you ROCK at teaching even though your principal drives you nuts. And to top it off, when faced with serious health issues, you took charge and turned it around! I am SO proud of you!! Anyways, I was just thinking that, so I thought I would tell you." --- Yes, I am a mother of grown children (the one who wrote that text is a grad student in Hawaii), with plenty of grandchildren. My parents are still living (in Burbank) and my dad is a great guy who is easy to get along with; however my mom isn't well and when she feels bad she can be less than easy to get along with. I'm a teacher with 20 awesome first graders. I truly enjoy teaching although I plan on retiring in a few years. I've had my health issues but they are fairly resolved now. Oh yes, I can't forget my pups. I have two little dogs that I love. I currently have my granddaughter's cat as well as she is taking care of my parents. I love animals and feel that pets add to one's life.
I seldom drink but a good glass of wine with dinner and friends is great. I don't smoke and I HATE drugs. I am mostly vegetarian for health reasons. I have no use for organized religion. Been there, done that. This doesn't mean I'm not spiritual, just not in a building. My politics are fairly liberal but I enjoy hearing other reasonable ideas. I'm pretty much a glass-half-full type of person who has been accused of wearing rose-colored glasses.
My interests: travel, reading, gardening, hiking, camping, the central coast (esp. San Luis Obispo area), theatre, dancing, photography, computers, cards, dining out, animals, exploring archeological sites, kayaking, the Channel Islands, history . . . how long of list do you want? I'm eclectic enough to record Indian rock art in Arizona with the historical society and then clean up to attend a formal function.
So, what I am looking for? Probably what everyone on this site could say. I'm missing that special someone - to talk with, laugh with, snuggle with, share intimate times with. Someone to spend the last 1/3 of my life with. I was married for almost 30 years. I've had a long-term relationship and some short-term ones as well. A few years ago I just gave up on finding that special someone. But here I am, trying again and being optimistically romantic that there is someone special out there - just for me and me - just for him. I believe a relationship is about sharing life's ups and downs - caring for each other and doing special, little, unasked-for things that say "you are special to me".
