Date men from United States / California / Woodacre, 63 year old

Date a man from Woodacre, United States. I am semi-retired. That means that I am available to pursue interests as they arise. In the interim, I spend time with family and friends, traveling in order to do so. This past summer I helped my older son remodel a house in Austin, Texas, for resale. It's now on the market! My other son is a junior at UCLA pursuing his passion as a jazz musician. I have a burning desire to build or create a home for myself and for a very significant other.

Meet a soulmate from Woodacre, United States. Fast dancin', pool shootin', bull ridin', whiskey drinkin', pot smokin', hard lovin' (but gentle) local man seeks feminine lady for good times, possible long term relationship.
Women with tattoos, ERA t-shirts, nose rings or other types of 'fishing tackle' attached to her body need not apply. Ability to ride the range all day, raise hell all night and cook helpful.
Just kidding ladies... Some of it is true but thats not totally me, thats just my sense of humor. The real me is found below.
Before I get to that, I understand that many women on these pages think that the men here are looking for either a 'nurse or a purse' so lets set the record straight, Speaking for myself, Im looking for neither. Im looking for a partner. A companion, my life is good why not share it.
I grew up in the Illinois corn belt and headed west in my mid 20s. Ive kept many of my midwestern values, integrity, honesty, loyalty, trust and try to live by what they represent.
I dont follow the latest fads, I dont wear the latest clothes nor do I drive a fancy car. I have no tattoos or body piercings. I dont wear jewelry, I dont play video games.
In a lot of ways Im not your regular guy. but in a lot of other ways I am.
Believe it or not, Im a fun guy, I can make you laugh. And because Im an easy going person I have attracted a wide range of friends. Friends that share a lot of the same interests and values as I do.
Unfortunately the things I do for fun, mountain biking, hiking, photography, doesnt put me in contact with many women so I thought Match.com can help me in this regard. The jury is still out.
What Im looking for in a woman is someone with integrity, someone who is honest, trustworthy, someone who is self assured and a straight shooter. Book smarts is fine but it helps to have street smarts to. Someone who is financially and emotionally stable
She has to enjoy the outdoors and she has to appreciate my sense of humor and have a good one of her own.
Am I asking for a lot? I dont think so.

Date someone special from Woodacre, United States. I have a true love of life, willing to explore all it has to offer. My friends tell me I am a truly warm and giving person, always there when needed. It's difficult to sit and describe yourself because I think we perceive ourselves a little differently than others might see. The true measure of who you are is only visible when two people can look into one anothers eyes and feel eachothers spirit. Unfortunately, that can't be done in this forum so we have to rely on the chance someone might enjoy your photo and sense by what is written that this might be a very warm and sensitive person. I feel I have a lot to offer to the right person and would truly enjoy sharing the many experiences left to explore. Ideally, my match would be attractive, athletic, passionate, share some similar interests and be emotionally available to engage in a meaningful relationship.Simply said, I'm looking for the missing piece to the puzzle.
