Date men from United States / Colorado / Conifer, 48 year old

Date someone special from Colorado, United States. I'm a romantic, old-fashioned when it comes to treating ladies as ladies, but I have a young heart - I don't always act my age . . .
I'm a reader, writer, poet, musician and artist. I work because I have to live, I do NOT LIVE TO WORK, because life is already too short.
I'm no sports fanatic, but I like to watch football, soccer, sometimes baseball, tennis or golf - depends a lot on who's playing. I like to ski and walk and slide down hills in the snow - but not drive over it on a machine going 90 MPH. My excersize is getting outside and taking advantage of this beautiful area, and discovering new natural beauty. I love taking pictures. I'm a fan of most styles of music; not country so much. Love Pink Floyd, James Taylor, Joe Lamontagne, Adele, Elton John, Billy Joel, Black Eyes Peas, The Eagles. And I love to sing along.
Seems like most of us on these dating sites like similar things; we are all looking to enjoy the things we like with someone special to us. Relationship is more about enjoying similar pursuits and new adventures with someone else - a context for loving.
I've done a lot, traveled a lot, made a lot, lost a lot. Laughed a lot, cried a lot. We all have, right? Now I'd like to experience a lot with the right person.
I'm looking for a lady who wants and offers:
humor - who can laugh at funny, silly things - and things that aren't funny in life sometimes
passion - who gets mad and sad about things that matter to her - and wants to positively deal with them
gentleness - the strength to be kind, even when it's the hard thing to do
energy - who can keep going when others would quit
intelligence - who lives by learning and knowing and not just feeling
Challenge - not satisfied with the status quo or someone who is
Kind of a long profile; thanks for reading to the end; don't be shy, I love getting to know pretty much anyone, and you never know what might happen!
