After graduation I joined the Navy and floated around
on an aircraft carrier for 4 years. My "boat" was the USS Intrepid
.. she's a museum in New York City these days.
In 1973 I moved to Seattle, not knowing anyone, with 200 dollars and
a seabag full of clothes. I've been here ever since having bought
a home and married my wife Ruth. I worked for a VISTA type program
when I first got here being a teacher's aide to inner city children
and bought my first house when I was making 50 dollars a month and
getting food stamps.
Through the years I've worked many jobs. They run the gamut from stringing
beads to maintenance electrician to the current "geeky" computer stuff
I do now. I maintain a web page at www.speakeasy.org/~gregb.
Feel free to visit my page.
I wish you all well. I still have family and siblings in the Tucson
area and I get down there occasionally.
As the Grateful Dead have written and recorded, "what a long strange
trip it's been" ... a wonderful one I wouldn't have traded for any
others'.
Check out my web page ... and write.
