When my daughter got accepted at George Tech, I called your mom to tell her. She remarked that Farah must be very smart like you.

I believe the school was grey with white trim and and had not been painted in 25 years. This experience convinced me that I did not want to be a painter. Graduated from HHS in 1973 and went on to Georgia Tech to earn a degree in Mechanical Engineering. The following summers I went to work with Van Cleef Engineering until moving to Cincinnati in 1977. My summer painting Bloomingdale School was a life altering experience! Enjoyed the read! Jeff Korthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08080905149038142633noreply@blogger.com
