I am retired from an academic career and have been a widower for ten years. I volunteer, bowl, read, write, and travel. My most recent trip was an Elderhostel program to North and South Dakota. I recommend it. I've traveled in Europe and the U.S. I'm active in my church. I grew up in the Midwest but have lived most of my adult life in the South. I enjoy movies, theatre, and reading. Don't like to cook, but I manage. I have a lot to offer. I'm funny, financially independent, and well-educated. I work out regularly and am in very good health. I'd like to be friends first with the possibility of a committed relationship down the road.

Looking for a young-at-heart person who is curious about the world and at ease in her skin. I prefer a person who is well-educated and well-informed about the world.
