Yesterday I volunteered at the Andrew York Lineman Rodeo. I had a whole lot of fun, and had a chance to observe some of the best linemen in the northwest! I left SUPER early from my house, so about an hour and a half into my drive I snapped some pictures of the early morning sunrise, over transmission lines, and a small substation. Check 'em out!
When I got there, they had guys up a pole, with the flag then being passed up and installed. We recited the pledge, sang the national anthem, and said a prayer. A solid beginning to a sweet day!
Then the fun began! My job was "check-in, check-out" for the 230kV Corona ring changeout (De-energized).This is what it looked like...
Here are some pictures a few of the other events!
