Date women from United States / California / Playa del Rey, 48 year old

Date a woman from United States. I was born and raised in Playa del Rey, and have lived close to the beach all of my life. I believe this is the core that has formed my chill attitude about most things. I love the outdoors and all sports, participating in several and a fan of many others. I love football season and am always kind of sad after superbowl. Fall is a long way off! Fishing and boating are a couple of my favorite things to do. I actually love anything that has to do with the water. I also love to scuba dive. Just makes me feel alive! We have a family home in Alaska on the Kenai River where we fish and hike every summer. In contrast, I certainly love a 5 star hotel in a faraway exotic destination just as much. IРІР‚в„ўm an avid snow skier so it goes without saying, is one of my passions. A week in Mammoth couldn't make me happier. Some my fondest memories as a teenager come from the many ski trips I went on with all my very best friends..
IРІР‚в„ўve had a great life, with happiness far outweighing problems, so being positive, outgoing and fun loving is natural. As IРІР‚в„ўve gotten older, IРІР‚в„ўve increasingly gravitated toward like- minded people. I choose to be with active, interesting people who bring something to the mix. I'm really a sweats, shorts, flip flop, t-shirt kinda of girl, but certainly love getting dressed up for a night on the town.. Really a girls girl when it comes that!
I have been blessed by being raised by the two most aqmazing parents in the entire world.I hold my family and friends very dear to my heart and cherish their existence more than I ever have before. The majority of my closest friends IРІР‚в„ўve known most of my life.. some even from grammar school, Rare find these days..
I love to cook and love to entertain for my family and friends. Good wine, good music, a night at the bowl, and especially good concerts are things I really enjoy. Having always been a busy person, IРІР‚в„ўm trying to take more time to travel, with a long list of places I still have to see. A group of us spent 3 weeks in Southwestern France last summer where food, wine and friends all came together in a wonderful experience. It would be great to have a partner to share such things.
I enjoy intelligent, witty conversation, flavored with a bit of honest sarcasm here and there.
IРІР‚в„ўd like find a guy that has his own life, career and friends, as I do. You should be secure, independent, and outgoing with an adventurous spirit. Would like you to possess the fun factor, embrace romance, be compassionate and passionate. You must have a good sense of humor and not take themselves too seriously. For the record, since everyone seems to mention it, all my photos were taken easily within the last 18 months and some as recent as a few weeks ago.
IРІР‚в„ўm a newbie at this internet dating thing, and really donРІР‚в„ўt have a clue what to expect! I am keeping an open mind, an open heart, and look forward to all the possibilities that await me..

Meet someone special from United States. Hi,
I love to laugh and enjoy life. I am a very down-to-earth, fun, caring, independent, happy person with a great sense of humor and balance.
I try to only surround myself with good people who also have a zest for life and care about the effect their actions have on other people.
I am a happy, optimistic person, finding that special person to share the up's and down's with would be the icing on the cake.
I am financially and emotionally stable and not looking for someone to take care of me; I am looking for a good, no, great partner to share my life with.
Please be flexible, fun, kind and easy-going, with a good sense of balance in your life and an understanding and appreciation of what is really important in life, especially at this stage.
Humility, compassion , flexibility, integrity and humor essential!
