Elizabeth and I are living in California and enjoy what this State has to offer. Both of our families are involved in line work and I am the fourth generation member of the IBEW. My great grandfather was involved in starting the Montana Power Company. My grandfather was a Hydroelectric Dam Main Control Systems Forman in Utah and Montana. For many years he was the "Shop Steward". My uncle George Gaudet is the head of the IBEW Apprenticeship training center in Montana. He retired from the power company in Montana a few years ago. He was one of the first to be trained on "Hot 500 KVA" line work.(See Video 4) My father-in-law has also been working in line work and power companies for many years. It is obvious that both of my families have "power in their blood".
