Hi...Just enjoy chatting and meeting nice guys from around the world. Always nice to make new friends..I am not looking for a relationship. I enjoy conversation, on various topics. I also love classical music, opera, jazz, old Broadway shows, and recordings of music going back to the 1890s. I love books (and I have a lot of them), and love to make and sometimes meet friends.

Let's bask in the sun. I'm a 65 year old gay man who's looking for friends. I'm single, dating, and ready to meet guys who are interested in the arts, exercise, and, to some degree, activism. I love living in Santa Cruz, California!
