Date women from United States / California / Upland, 68 year old

Date someone special from Upland, United States. Life is beautiful.
Lets be playful and smell each and every rose along the way! (Or at least have fun and enjoy it)
I am recently retired from a rewarding and fulfilling career as a public school administrator. I am now eager to enjoy the fruits of my labor and a more balanced life. ..RR...rest and recreation! That means lots of chillin by the fire and playing when we want to!
I value family (yours or mine) and friends. I am a social creature and I deeply enjoy a great sense of humor and high intelligence.
I WAS in politics and served four terms (16 years) in office before my conscience made me jump ship. I value my integrity. I AM still into public service and love to volunteer to help others though.
I am always positive and find the best in any situation. Give me lemons and I make lemon meringue pie. I don't do drama or games. But I would love to learn to fish and play poker. And I enjoy all sporting events, classic cars and racing (horses too!)
I am a GREAT listener, and valued for being nurturing, trustworthy and empowering others! I love bubble baths with lots of bubbles that smell like jasmine or lavendar. And I love massages...giving them....and getting them. I enjoy cooking special dishes especially Mexican or Italian food.
I'm looking for a playful partner with a sense of humor and intelligence, who is a good communicator with a deep and good soul and a will to live and enjoy life. I would love to hear about you via email and take it from there...
P.S. I am looking for a long term, evolving and committed relationship. If you are just a pen pal, phone pal, do drugs, or are a player or a serial dater, please pass me by.
And, if I just wink at you it is because I am old fashioned enough to expect the man to make the first move.
