Date women from United States / California / Woodside, 56 year old

Date someone special from Woodside, United States. I adore being outdoors - especially enjoy running in the morning, walks at sunset, and anything related to boats and water. I live in Woodside with easy access to all these things. I have a creative, artsy bent - visit art museums and galleries often, appreciate interesting architecture, and I am an avid collector. I enjoy listening to music, especially live, and usually rock, jazz or blues. I'm liberal-minded and environmentally aware. I am told that I am more intriguing than this profile suggests. I have spark and I can sparkle!
My perfect match will share some similarities, be successful professionally, have high energy level but able to wind down, and favor the outdoors. He is likely to know more than me about music (or something else) and will expand my horizons. I am honest, open-minded, giving, intelligent, responsible, rock stable and have good self-esteem - and so does my match. Perhaps you have a good sense of humor - I am a lame comedian but a great audience (addicted to the Daily Show and partial to clever, dry Monty Python types). A solid relationship is a must, based upon absolute trust, sharing, friendship, excitement, passion, companionship, mutual respect, and good communication. And of course that elusive chemistry we all seek.
I have two grown sons who were the center of my life for many years. It is my proudest accomplishment to have nurtured them and to see them become such extraordinary young adults. Both are Brown grads and fully "launched". I have just transitioned from a demanding position at a company I founded, and now I am ready for the next phase. I have more time and flexibility to relax, enjoy life and pursue new interests. Including you.
I have added two recent photos to show that I actually look like my pix. So fellow travelers, check out my photos, guess where one or more were taken, and send me an email with or without your guesses.....
