Wouldn't there be too many lights in Vegas??. Electrical violations would be far too much for this crowd [Linked Image], I suggest a back woods cabin with no power [Linked Image]

Hello Russel, I like your style. [Linked Image]

Walrus, what a true observation. We would never meet one another due to critiquing the area. [Linked Image]

Someone said "Edison, NJ" home of Edison Tower, and about 30 min. from West Orange, NJ the home of Thomas Edison & his labs??

Gee, isn't that fitting. (Also happens to be the twp that I work in)

Seriously guys, it sounds like a good idea, no matter what location.

Las Vegas would be the place! Cheap hotels,cheap airfare, warm weather, and a place for the wives to have something to do (shopping). Lets do it!!!

Vegas would be a great place. Someone might be able to arrange a tour of one of the newer casino's electrical system? I for one would love to see all that is necessary to make them work around the clock, through thick and thin. Does AC have any newer casino's? Last 5 years or so.

Lost Wages, Nev. seems to have gotten the majority of the votes. I'm for it!

Joe T mentioned San Diego. We could arrange a "field trip" to Tijuana, and have more electrical hazards than we could handle...S

Electure,

Tijuana would be IDEAL!!!

There's tons of stuff to see there. Including smashed meters on the utility poles!

I didn't feel like toting my camera and looking like another tourist when I was down there this past August....preferred to blend in with the crowd.

Course I don't know if I could afford another plane trip. [Linked Image]

How about The Fire Island Pines?

Salt water....electricity....X-mas tree light strings and steel-armored cord caps.....makes for a real sight!!! Then there was the three-floodlamp cluster Wonder-screwed to a tree. White NM coming out of the bottom of the box encircling the tree-trunk. At least they used the water-resistant box. [Linked Image]

I'm still wondering what a water meter to a house was doing about a yard and a half (in the swamp) away from the walkway to the house!!! How does the utility guy READ that???

I vote for Las Vegas,

In early December, that way I can make a company Christmas Party out of it.
