The current profile picture was taken September 28, 2021. Would love to meet an accomplished single man, age 60-72 who is healthy, energetic and acts with kindness, integrity and chivalry. NO smokers or drug users. Let's be friends first and see where it leads. I advocate for the rights of animals and children. I have been known to approach a parent hitting their child or pet and intervene to bring awareness and help them calm down. I hate how the factory farming industry abuses animals and how countries around the world cause needless suffering to animals. I am a whole plant-food vegan and attend live music events, museums and occasional sporting events. I enjoy being outdoors, on the water, or in nature. Love to travel. I know my way around the kitchen and prefer eating only whole plant foods that are gluten-free and made without salt, oil or sugar. Meditation and long walks help keep me centered. Not vaxxed. Not a liberal!!! I can't wait to see what's in store for me as I retired from my job as a special education teacher in an elementary school in San Francisco in July 2021. I turn 68 in March 2023 and feel vibrant and alive! I own an oceanfront condo in New Smyrna Beach, FL and have left CA to establish residency in FL. No state income tax!!
