If you've got a high tolerance for "false positives" you might try the on-line dating services. They tend to be the "you've got to kiss a lot of frogs" sort of situations, so be prepared to reject a lot of guys who don't measure up if you go that route. I've had pretty good luck with them ... two really solid relationships (one broke up after 2+ years, one I'm still in) since my wife died five years ago. But to do that I've gone through more than 30 "matches" that I've dated, and more than 100 that I've corresponded with.
Hobbies are always good, but for goodness sake pick a hobby with a LOT of MEN and VERY few women. One woman I know, for example, read up and went to the local ham radio club, where virtually all the women are wives of men in the club and there are quite a few single guys. All techies, but she is of a technical bent herself. In short order she had several of the single guys practically fighting to help her study for her license test, and was dating at least one of them as well.
Moral of the story: hunt ducks where the ducks are. The bad news is that after 50 there tend to be a lot more single eligible women than single eligible men out there. The good news is that it DOES work out eventually for just about everybody who keeps on trying.
