No kidding!!! That is amazing!! I would love to see a photo of that map. I always said, “The guys who originally put these poles and towers in were REAL MEN!!”

In the early days 50% of lineman died. All our procedures and rules and written in blood. My Hard hat goes off to your Grandpa!! Such a young age... man would I have loved to see how they did things back in those days. I am a big fan of the old lineman stuff. I have some collectible things, insulators, climbing hooks, and other random stuff.

Your are very welcome. That is all a lineman needs when we have been working for 30+ hours straight restoring power during a big storm. Just a simple... Thank you

I did 44 hours once, and several 38-40 hour shifts. No sleep, except maybe a little 10-15 minute cat nap. We got work to do. Lol.

Thanks for stopping by and I would love to see that map, if you ever come across it.
Cheers
