Dear Sirs:

This letter is to inquire about possible employment opportunities with your
company.  I am a journeyman lineman and have been in the industry since 1978.
My experience includes all phases of electrical distribution and transmission
lines.

I have chosen the Colorado area because of the excellent quality of
life and the easy access to outdoor activities.  What is equally important is
an area with steady growth and opportunity.

I can be available for an interview at your convenience.  I look forward
to hearing from you.

Thank you for your consideration.


                                       Sincerely,
