My oldest son is heading to Tech next year, probably doing EE. I'd love to meet up for some fishing some time and let him hear about your experience.

Are you getting out on JPP this weekend?

Awesome, I just graduated in May from Tech so I would have a lot to tell him. A buddy I graduated with works at TVA in Chatt but not on the controls side, he's working on power systems. I won't be fishing JPP this weekend but probably will next weekend. Also headed there next Tuesday for the kayak fishing event.
