Virgil's Story
Well,it's been 36 years since I've seen most of you,so where do I start. I am currently living in metro Atlanta. I'm ,now, a carpenter helping build schools in Gwinnette,Fulton,and Barrow counties. The Archer High school we are now building will be the biggest in the state of Ga. I've been doing this for 10 years.
Before this occupation I used to be a cook/chef. I worked and lived in New Orleans for 15 years. I was a night cook and baker offshore on the oil rigs. I've also been a sous chef in Las Vegas for 3 years. I lived and worked in Denver,Co.,Albuquerque,N.M.,Seattle,Wash., Tampa,Orlando,and Jacksonville,Fla. Phoenix,Arizona, Witchita,Kansas,Houston and Dallas,Tex., and Baton Rouge,La.
You could say I've been there and done that and be...Expand for more
right. I'm still single and probably always will be. When I'm not building schools I'm usually working on some ones house. I stay rather busy. I've been known to work 3 or 4 months straight without taking a day off. When I do it's to work on my car or go fishing. Every now and then I'll take one of my great nieces and/or nephews to a Braves game or Six Flags. I was dating some one special(for the past two years) but that's another story. Well,hope I didn't bore you. Thanks,May God Bless and keep you and yours safe,wishing you all the best, VB.
PS, Well we did it. As of 04/15/09 we've turned the largest high school over to Gwinnett County Public Schools. Just a few months of punch work(finishing touches and cleaning)and we are done and gone. VB
