Date women from United States / California / Yorba Linda, 47 year old

Date someone special from Yorba Linda, United States. OK all ,I am so new to this. 20 years out of the dating pool so please bear with me on my description of myself and my ideal date. I am a beginner now and I am sure my description will expand as I get the hang of this. How realistic is it for anyone to adequately describe themselves in this little box, I promise to be truthful though in all that I write. Here it goes.......
Looking for that special someone who enjoys life and new adventures, but also appreciates the quiet times. I believe I am a person of integrity, and find integrity in others to be quite attractive. I am looking for someone who is kind and trustworthy and values the friendship and love they can share with someone. I love to laugh and have been told on a number of occasions that I have an awesome sense of humor.
I have not traveled a whole lot, but would really love to someday. I am quite adventurous and would enjoy exploring new places with someone. Additionally though, as much as I love new adventures and fulfilling pleasures of my own I understand the value of stepping outside of myself to serve others and the importance/value of giving back to the community especially with organizations that work with children.
My children are of utmost importance in my life, and at 15 and 17 continue to be amazing blessings to me. They are at a place in their life though that allows me more time to pursue my own interests, whether shared or alone,( shared interests are so much better though, don't you agree)? My Christianity is very important to me. As a result, I want someone who shares similar values and understands the importance of this in our lives.
Education is important to me, oh, and a love for what you do is a bonus especially in today's economy Oh yeah, let's not forget I am a USC graduate/fan,but you Bruins who might be reading this, don't let that frighten you, especially since my daughter wants to go to UCLA :)
I love doing things with other people/couples, and am quite social. However, I cherish those quiet intimate times alone with someone special.
I have however never owned a Harley, and most likely never will. Also, for those of you with a vast number of tattoos. I know they each have some very special meaning, and I can appreciate that, but I feel that it is best to find someone with that same passion and understanding that I sadly, but honestly don't possess.
Although my family is not local I am quite close to them, and am thankful to be blessed with such a wonderful family and amazing friends.
California has some incredible places to visit. The opportunities provided to us from the beaches, to the mountains, to the desert are fantastic. However,although I have been here and loving it for almost 26 years, I have to confess, I am an East Coast girl at heart.
If you believe we can get a friendship started that may lead to possibly more, feel free to send me a wink or take a risk and send me an email just to say hi. I promise to write back.
I am not sure what is important here to state about myself, so if there is something you want to know, just write me and ask.
Whatever happens in your journey I hope it is successful and you find much happiness.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.

Meet a woman from Yorba Linda, United States. Hummmm, talking about yourself is a little difficult you can ask friends or relatives what they think you are like and get several different answers. But here goes hopefully I will be fairly accurate.
I like BBQРІР‚в„ўs and wine tasting, a junk food junkie at heart. Very honest sometimes to a fault, I am fairly willing to try most activities at least once. My next activity would be skydiving always wanted to try jumping out of a plane.
Favorite sports is College football, pro football is “OK” but not as exciting as college. I enjoy going to watch college football as well, also like Rodeo’s bull riding and team penning.
Other likes; running and working out every other day is my usual schedule but if I need to I will adjust a day or so but not too often. (Really enjoy running it relaxes me)
Love to people watch and learn/hear about their different cultures. Enough about me I am actually a very private person or so I have been told. Friendships to me are forever but not given out to just anyone.

What am I looking for; a friend first and must be honest
