I Would Describe Myself As
Not nearly as grumpy as photos would suggest.Look younger than I am apparently, age fudged. Recently widowed senior, healthy and financially independent, would appreciate some company. Not into sports, loud concerts, reality shows or Fox news but would consider out of curiosity.Just started biking and it has been suggested I take up dancing, maybe? I was a political news/comedy junky, like camping and have recently just been driving around the Province, into historical family photographs/genealogy, reading and occasional Meet-up group debates. (Considering another motorcycle or retro sports car but unlikely). Former TV news photographer and high school teacher.(any former co-workers?) My wife and I spent most of our time together or with the family so I have few outside contacts now, hence this approach. I have felt recently that I am now open to a relationship again and would cautiously consider a commitment or at least eventual monogamous compatibility. Could provide some good family references.

What Do You Look For?
"What am I looking for"----- posted on Dating for Seniors.
Really don't know till I see her and profile, could be attracted to different types. Likes her independence? I would consider living apart if not too far geographically. Like good conversation but nothing wrong with long quiet times either. Probably prefer a more reserved personality with genuine character underneath, no pretense.
My wife and I just sort of drifted comfortably together, she was a dark haired brown eyed beauty but I seemed to have also had some predilection for blue eyes and sandy or red hair. Physically, eyes seem important. While significant, no big rush on the intimate bit.-------------------------------------------------------
"Ideal Match Description" placed on Alberta Matchmakers (they do the choosing)
Friendly compatibility and complimentary balance a basic, and a pleasant voice.
Preferably within 5 to 15 kms. Probably at least some post high school education
No great immediacy or expectations on intimacy but eventually at least occasionally.
My age can be a concern till we meet.
Because of mine theirs OK if reasonably well preserved and not much makeup but younger helps of course.
