Lola50, 64

Warm, Mature, Mischievous? I have a good life. After 25 years as a professional in the natural resources field, I am going back to school to pursue a new career, and leaving it open to see what I will do with it upon graduation. It is a risk that I'm well aware of, yet it seems to be falling into place after years of thinking and finally doing it.

I value my friends scattered across the continent and have absolute trust in them. The most precious people in my life are my young adult niece and nephew. If my house caught on fire, I'd rescue my dog, everything else are just objects.

I like to laugh and tease, and appreciate the small joys in life. I like to hike and kayak, and live for the beach along with visiting friends. Currently planning a 50 mile wilderness walk with a friend next summer. I keep a healthy lifestyle, which pays off.

My garden is a work in progress. Thinking of putting in a pond this year.

I like to travel. Would love to take a year off and travel in a small driveable camper to experience new parts of the country. I feel blessed to have experienced working with Native people in Alaska, Colorado, the Southwest & Midwest; and worked in nearly every province and territory in Canada.

Am looking for an intelligent, warm, authentic man who sees the strengths in others, not weaknesses. A willingness to find ways to build or maintain a relationship because it does not just happen - at our age, hopefully we have passed that fluff stage. I need to be able to fully trust you. I am looking to grow old together. If you've read this far down, and looking for substance too, then I'd love to hear from you.
