Date men and women from United States / Colorado / Erie, 51 year old

Date a man from Erie, United States. Hi.
I'm just a guy looking for a girl, hoping to find love and be loved in return. I hope to find something wonderful and hope you do too. I'm looking for that person that I can share the rest of my life with. It's that simple but not that simple to do. I have a good brain, a decent body and, I think, a good heart, and am hoping to find the same.
About me, I love lots of things and am generally a happy camper whatever the activity. I like to be outside skiing and hiking, biking and running. I like to be active often, but I also like just staying home to read, watch a movie, spend time with my kids, be lazy sometimes, or go for a walk.
I am looking for a partner, a best friend to be with: a lover and my partner in all things. That's why I'm on this goofy site. In short, I would like to find a relationship with someone that would involve sharing many things including family and our time. I also wish to travel to beautiful places with each other, but at the end of the day, the relationship would be about being together.
You should know that I have two kids that I love more than I can adequately express. Anyone that might be interested in me would have to understand that, and if you have kids then you probably do, but I still have lots of room for another great love, and it is my sincere hope to find a partner, best friend, lover to spend my days with.
I do hope to find someone to be my partner in all things, but to start I'd just like some good conversation, good company, fun, to see what might be possible.
