Date men from United States / Alabama / Piedmont, 68 year old

Date a soulmate from Piedmont, United States. Former Wall Street Banker (the decent kind, one who financed good companies, and did not take money from widows nor children. I.e., not a stock shuffler), I took a sabbatical year to travel, then moved to California to become a teacher and school finance manager, then father. I became a professional photographer, a lacrosse coach and referee, and learned Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom in depth and helped others to use them. Also coached soccer, baseball, basketball and was a Scout leader when my son was young.
It'd be wonderful to share my life with a woman who is confident and happy, and one with whom I can form a real bond of love, respect, and trust.
I like to travel, but also enjoy home time. Interests are wide, from sailing to most sports, to photography, movies (and films!), cooking and good restaurants, to the SF Symphony, legit theatre, especially Marin Shakespeare's productions. I serve several charitable organizations, including The USS Potomac, Stanford-Camron House and Marin Shakespeare Company.
I love movies of all types except pure action or horror movies. I like all comedy, be it in movies, stand-up, tv specials or series. Oh, yeah!: Long walks on moonlit beaches; cozy fires; candlelit dinners; dark chocolate baths, and many other romantic notions are a part of me, but seem too trite to list, so I won't mention them, O.K.?
I love our English language, and for fun dabble in English, American and Canadian accents (there are lots in each country, eh?). I know grammar good, and fervently hope that you have a sense of humor about this, even in the absence of smilies!
If you like to laugh and make others laugh, can see the ironies in life, but still love it, you may be someone I'd really like to be with. If you're a climber (either social or mountain), a bleeding heart or a cold one, we won't be a match.
