Date men from Canada / Ontario / Owen Sound, 71 year old

Date someone special from Owen Sound, Canada. I'm a qualified independent, balancing the social and the private. Wanting to share life's challenges and rewards with one lively,caring, woman of similar persuasion. Believing that I am happiest (aren't most of us?) with a close, primary relationship, a mutually supportive emotional center. A loving, respectful relationship to complement rather than conflict with the vital individuality of each partner.
I enjoy my children (2 older, 2 young), 5 grandchildren, other close family and have good friends. Boredom does not enter my life as I live with both responsibilities and a wealth of energy, interests and health. These interests include the outdoors and lots of curiosity about the world. More a traveler than a tourist. A split preference for the civilization of cities and the call of real wilderness, skipping the burbs! Farm and country is OK too. On the water a preference for paddle and wind to motors. Lots of books on the go as well as internet. Being self-employed brings advantages of flexibility most of the time.
After the sober good stuff above I hasten to add that I am also a comfort seeker and appreciate that without a developed sense of humour and the absurd, life would be far less fun. I can veg out, please a partner with preparing food, cuddle and banter. Looking for someone who thrives on same.
