Heath's Story
"Once Upon a Time" or "This Ain't No Joke". Pick your poison, even I haven't figured it out 18 years later...
After a long and successful career of drinking beer, hustling golf, and singing karoke, it occurred to me to marry a crank hound. I was looking to settle down and mature a little. Though I didn't know said woman was a crank hound, I soon discovered that my meager salary would not support the luxuries of life, luxuries such as electricity and telephone. After a few nights in the dark, I figured that crank hound's chosen profession may be the key to more grand horizons, and it was. Next stop, Alaska.
I landed in Bethel, Alaska on September 2, 1996. Though I planned to go back to school, I ended up on a D-9 Cat making $17 bucks an hour. I parlayed that into a Supe...Expand for more
rintendent job, then eventually worked into Project Management. The culmination of my 11 years in Bethel was being the Port Director. Along the way, I met a gal from Florida who kicked my ass into the straight and narrow (as much as possibe, anyway), and finished my Masters of Applied Project Management at Villanova. Obviously, crank hound is a distant memory.
Now, we live in Palmer, Alaska. We have two of the most beautiful daughters you could ever imagine (paybacks!), one of the worlds' great views, and a great life. I still drink beer and hustle golf, though only on Wednesdays'. The rest of my time is spent managing remote construction projects and being the guy that my daughters think I am. In the immortal words of Jerry Garcia, "What a long, strange trip its' been".
