Date women from United States / California / Upland, 42 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I'm an easy going woman who enjoys the simplicity of life. Although I'm easy going, there are four key components in life that I adhere to: trust, character, integrity and compassion. These are essential components in my life and I adhere to them strongly.
As far as my interests go, I enjoy doing most anything and view everything an adventure. Some of the things I do enjoy include golf, travel, spontaneous road trips, gardening (Bonsai), concerts and art. Again, I'm open to just about anything so exposure to new experiences and adventures are always a plus.
Now, what I'm looking for... well, first and foremost is friendship. This is a must for me for I feel developing a friendship is the key to any healthy relationship. You gotta like the person you're with, right? This being said, I move slowly (no speed dating for me), so if you're looking for an instant relationship I'm not the girl for you.
Lastly, please feel free to say "Hello". A simple wink doesn't draw me in. After all... what do you have to lose?
