OK. I've tried this online dating thing several times already, but haven't met YOU yet. Although, I continue to believe you're here, so I am, if nothing else, ever hopeful. I'm currently 62 and a bit pudgy around the middle (I guess all those Whoppers really were/are bad for me), but in relatively good shape. I like to bicycle, go for long walks, go sailing, and work on my house and garden. I am an electronic technician and see myself working (at least part-time) until I'm 69. After that, I'd like to see a little more of the world. I grew up in the LA area, saw parts of the Western Pacific when I was in the Navy, and have been to parts of Europe, but there's lots of the US I haven't seen yet. I'd also like to visit friends in Australia.

For a first meeting, I'd like to meet somewhere informal for coffee or a glass of wine and a chance to talk for an hour or so. If WE think there's a connection, maybe we could plan a real first date, like maybe a walk and lunch at Balboa Park.
