With the official start of hurricane season (June 1st) closing in, there are already reports that an early tropical system may appear next week, nearly a week ahead of schedule. While some are suggesting that this will be a rather dry hurricane season, others say that we may not only see multiple hurricanes, but that the strange outbreaks of tornados, freak snow storms and other oddities will continue to get worse. Additionally, earthquakes are on the rise and catastrophic events {Read More}
In 2004 Florida was hit by three hurricanes …. and then a fourth. After the third hurricane hit, my husband, father-in-law and truck loads of friends headed to Florida to help with the debris, power and home damage. I put in my two week notice at work, a corporate marketing job that I loved, and headed south. Two weeks after arriving, the fourth hurricane hit. Within two hours of hearing the announcement, every shelf at the Wal-Mart super center across {Read More}
For the first 5 years of our marriage it was just the two of us. He was a contractor and was fortunate to show up in the same city (although they did move locations) that was around an hour away from home. He was home every night except for when storms would hit.

When people think about potential complications of having their power out, most of the time they’re thinking about being cold. Having been trapped in a house with no heat in the middle of December, with two kids and a newborn baby to boot, I can sympathize. However, when the electricity goes out in the summer and there’s nothing powering your AC or your fans, extreme heat can be as much of a killer as extreme cold. Literally. The question is, {Read More}
You can talk about power lines in the road. You can talk about power lines in your house. You can talk about power lines on your car. Regardless of where they happen to be, if they’re not up in the air where they belong you’ve got a problem. A big one. One that not only needs to be addressed as soon as possible, but also one that presents a tremendous amount of risk to the average driver or home owner {Read More}
School is important; it helps us learn the things we need to be successful in life. It teaches us valuable skills that we can take with us later. After high school, many people go on to college or trade school. Here they gain the information necessary to pursue their chosen career path. There are a wide variety of options available for people looking to further their education. Once you decide what you want to be in life, it’s time to {Read More}
You may have talked to someone who said that he was a lineman. If you’re like a lot of people, you probably thought he meant he was a football player. Chances are good that you were actually talking to someone who is a power lineman. What is a lineman? Have you ever seen a bucket truck with the electric company’s logo on it driving around town? The guy driving it was probably a lineman. It’s his job to keep the {Read More}
Finding Apprentice Lineman Positions in this economy can be difficult for those that are fresh out of high school or training programs. Seemingly there is a large community willing to help apprentices find work. Many companies value apprentices and frequently scout line schools for fresh apprentices that are excelling or showing a certain level of skills. Many of the most popular line school apprentices have work before they actually graduate. Finding work can be as simple as asking your college {Read More}
