Geoffrey's Story
Life
The story is too long to tell for this little box....but I'll give it a try. After going to college for a degree in Photography, I got married and went to work in the advertising/photography world in Seattle. I had a career change after 5 years of that going into construction which I still am today. I raised two kids alone for 10 years after getting divorced in 1995. Both kids are doing great these days. Fell in love about 4 years ago and that is a blessing after years in a miserable relationship while married.
Doing some travelling these days, race a old Porsche and work on it in my spare time. I still love photography taking billions of digital pic when I travel.
I have hooked up with a few old friends from High School and its great to see them again.

School
I went to Roosevelt High my first year of high school and really hated it there. Too big, lots of tough football types so I transfered to Garfield the next year. Loved it at Garfield as it was really a change with all the diversity and the art program. Met...Expand for more
lots of students who now are running the city or have other stand out careers. The teachers were alittle strange but taught me how to think for myself and question everything. I did go to the Garfield HS 20 year reunion. Wow was that sad or what! So many students had died from going to Vietnam, drugs, or who knows what. This was guys and girls too, very sad. It was still good to see the old gang though or rather who was left. I really counted my blessing after that and questioned where I was in my life and where I was going...I guess that was the thing that helped me decide to get divorced too and give up on a marriage gone bad. Whew, now I am so happy with my girlfriend/lover/financee. Life is strange isn't it?

My draft number was 360 so I skipped this part of the bio.
Mostly living and working in the Seattle area for the last 30 years but I am now in Suriname running a large custom kitchen cabinet business. Enjoying the hot sunny climate and the fun Caribbean culture/lifestyle and intend on mostly staying here if all works out.
