Brian's Story
After high school, I went to tech school for residential electricity (electrician). Graduated 2nd in my class and found it so boring I wanted to cry. What a waste of time. I was working part time as a diesel mechanic and decided that was my true calling. I worked for a couple of years for one company in West Palm Beach. Then I got a job in Stuart. I worked there for 3 or 4 years then moved to another shop, back in Palm Beach, where I stayed for 10 years. During a trip, with my girlfriend, to the Smokey Mountains we stopped overnight in Lake City. In the morning, I found the small town very appealing. So I got a job with the local Caterpillar dealer, bought a home, and moved in 1999. I have been with Cat for 10 years now and have become a truck engine annalist, mentor, and instructor. I work with the latest technology in on highway diesel engines. I have also participated in programs for the development of three generations of diesel truck engines.
After several interesting relationships, I meet and fell in love with my wife. Sandra and her two daughters are wonderful women. Sandra and I own two homes. One in town and another on 10 acres in the woods.
In my spare time I enjoy building and flying model airplanes and helicopters. I am the vi...Expand for more
ce president of my local flying field. I build and repair computers for my friends and family. It"s a hobby that I really enjoy. Though I live far from the coast, I still enjoy scuba diving when I can. Say what you want but after years of diving off the coast of Palm Beach on one of the most beautiful reefs in the world, the fresh water springs, I have immediate access to, seem a bit lack luster. I like to ride my motorcycle. There are a couple of people I work with that like to get together and ride to new places, have lunch and ride back. I play Call of duty 4 on my Xbox 360 and Urban Terror on my PC.
Life is good.
Just recently, Life took a new twist. I got a job offer in Palm Beach. I took the job and moved back down south. Now my wife and I live in Greenacres (in Lake Worth). We are now enjoying city life. We are renting a town home off Lake Worth road. After we sell our properties in Lake City we"ll buy a new house here in the sunny south.
Life is great
Another update,
I love my new job. The company I am working for has expanded from brake and suspension repair to include engine repair as well. My specialty. We have sold our properties in Lake City and have bought a home! One with a garage, a yard, and everything!
Life is awesome.
