I have been using dm-geokit ([GitHub - mkingme/dm-geokit: Geokit for DataMapper](http://github.com/mattking17/dm-geokit))  
plugin with Datamapper (0.10.2). However it is causing issue when I am  
using dm-validations plugin. There is a auto-validation that is always  
failing “Address value has to be of Type String”. I have to use  
dm-validations for other fields .

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance
