Jean's Story
Hi Everyone,
Well where do I beging? I graduated from High School, Went to Business School, which turned out to be a great choice.
It has been helpful in many of my jobs, which I have had quite a few.
I have done Market Research, Secretarial, Office Manager, Taxation, Teaching the Intellectually Handicapped and ended up a Real Estate Agent. I also worked at Channel 7, our local TV Station.
I married straight out of High School to Alan Scrivner, we knew each other since we were about 13 years old. We had two wonderful daughters and I now have 5 incredibly delightful grandchildren. The eldest 17yrs. old, The youngest 10.
When our daughter Stephanie was 3yrs. old and Andrea 6 months, Alan, the girls and I immigrated to Australia, where we still live.
We lived in Brisbane for many years and then moved to Tasmania.
I eventually left my marriage and moved back to Brisbane, where I currently reside.
I think Brisbane is the second largest City in the world in land area. I live about an hours drive...Expand for more
to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world.
Water and out door activities are a major way of life.
Scuba diving and snorkeling is awesome, particularly in Cairns, near the Barrier Reef.
One of my favorite places to go, which is also about an hours drive are the Magnificent Rain Forests. What a place to meditate amongst the massive trees roots and water falls of the rain forest floor.
Australia has been a wonderful learning experience. Just getting use to a Sub Tropical sea level atmosphere, after the snow of Colorado which is a mile high, still remains a challenge.
Since retirement I have done a lot of traveling, New York, London, Atlantic City, New Orleans, San Francisco, Hawaii, New Zealand and Asia, Phuket, Thailand, Bali....... London being my favorite. Overall I would say I have had a good life. I visit Denver, where my family lives regularly.
East HIgh was a wonderful time in my life and many of the friends I made there are still friends to this day.
Cheers to everyone!
