Balloonlady, 82

I became a widow eight years ago and while I am comfortable with my own company--life shared is more fun. I enjoy my adult children, but don't want to build my social life around them. I am a happy person, I laugh often and enjoy jokes and bad puns. I have crewed for a hot air balloon for years, and enjoy the sport. I don't gamble, but have enjoyed playing tourist in Las Vegas, I don't enjoy shopping but do it when required. I like most pets, and currently have 2 cats and no dogs. I have enjoyed riding on the back of a motorcycle in the past, but I guess now I would rather ride on the back of a "trike" instead of a 2 wheeler. I am searching for a happy, self assured man who enjoys most of the ordinary things in life, movies (at home or in the movie theater) music, travel (close to home or longer. If he enjoys books, that's a plus. Live entertainment--music, plays, festivals--the ordinary things in life! I hope he has a good sense of humor and will make me laugh. He need not be handsome, but does need to have inner strength. I just know you're out there somewhere!
