Date men and women from United States / Colorado / Silverthorne, 56 year old

Date single man from Silverthorne, United States. I tried looking for love,
But I guess it’s true.
You don’t look for love,
It’s gonna look for you. Object of my affection - Shawn Clovin
At this point in my life, my children are grown and on their way to creating their own lives. I have had two long term relationships, one ended in divorce and after the second, I became a widower. I have no regrets about either. Sometimes life just doesn’t work out perfectly. So here I am ready to embrace my future.
It seems that most people our age have family, friends, homes, and jobs that might be difficult to leave and that may limit our search. I have a nice home and a good job here in Silverthorne, so sure, it would be nice to meet someone that would like to live here. On the other hand, I feel have flexibility to move should I meet the right person. I have worked hard to get to this point where I can consider working less and enjoy life more.
Finding a partner for the rest of my life is less about where you live and what you do, as it is the person you want to be with. If you truly love the person you are with, then it doesn’t matter what you do together, even if it is washing the dishes. I will admit, I prefer having a dishwasher to hand washing!
What am I looking for in a partner? She would be open to new ideas and activities. I respect your right to dislike certain foods, as I hate celery, but in general we can go to most any restaurant and find something to enjoy. You don’t have to put makeup on to go to the hardware store. You appreciate when a man takes the lead, but you are quite capable of planning, organizing, or suggesting ideas. You like to hold hands in public, flirt with me, and when appropriate, a passionate kiss. You enjoy making love to your partner often and only with your partner. We would enjoy exercise through activities, not just as a gym obsession. You want to introduce me to all your friends because you are proud of me.
I am originally from Wisconsin and moved to Colorado in the early 80's. After 2 years in Denver, I moved to the mountains and have been there ever since. I have two children 21 and 24, now living on their own, but are an important part of my life. I enjoy mountain biking on easy to moderate trails, camping, fishing, star gazing, snowshoeing, downhill skiing (Copper Pass) and cross country skiing in the winter. I enjoy watching football and hockey and attend when tickets are available. I would be lost without music in my life. Live concerts are a must. If you have been to the Telluride Bluegrass Festival or Rockygrass, then we will have fun. I like visiting National Parks, cultural sites, and exploring new places. I haven't done much international travel, but I would like to.
My employment affords me stability and a wage to be able to live in Summit County and own a home. I have plenty of vacation time in this job to enjoy life. While I can’t retire yet, I have a small internet business that may allow me to be semi-retired until I can. This would also give me flexibility to move any where love comes calling. Life would be more enjoyable if I had someone to share it with. So if you are willing to take a chance and meet, then say hello and let’s talk.

Meet men and women from Silverthorne, United States. I'm self employed in the food and beverage business. I like the arts. Concerts are a favorite pastime. In the summer I enjoy golf, hiking and biking. I want to get into sailing. In the winter I can be found snowboarding. I play music for personal enjoyment. I like to stay fit and eat healthy most of the time. I'm a tender soul and man of integrity. I communicate well and get along wth others. I love to laugh so having a great sense of humor is a must. I like to be playful and not take things too seriously. I'm up for most anything.
I would like to meet a woman with her own sense of direction. A woman of faith whose moral compass points up. A woman who beleives all is possible and still has that little girl in her who wants to come out and play.
