Date men and women from Canada / British Columbia / Chemainus, 56 year old

Date someone special from Chemainus, Canada. Hi
I find that when you're single it's difficult to have recent pictures of yourself. So my pics with the puppies (unfortunately not my own - the puppies not the pics) are my most recent.
I'd like to find someone who appreciates and enjoys the simple pleasures in life I'm not a fancy dresser, although an occasion to dress up and to accompany someone special is nice too.. I like to have fun but I'm not a 'partygirl'. I enjoy the company of good friends, and family is very important to me. I can be happy at home with a book, taking a walk in the sunshine, or walk on the beach. I like long drives, not necessarily to a destination, it's the ride that's fun and what you find along the way. I am open to new experiences and adventure. I like a good meal and a glass of wine, a comfy couch and someone to share it with. Gentle touches, and long slow kisses.
I am shy until I get to know you and feel I can let my guard down. I have been told on more than one occasion that I'm funny, though it's not intentional. I'm the one that gets the joke 5 minutes later, and the person that says something absolutely hilarous without meaning to. I am kind, understanding and loyal. You can find my handle at yahoodotca where perhaps we can say hi.
