Travels eventually brought me to Williamsport, Pa, a small town
in the middle of Pennsylvania. Our objective was the commissioning
of an aluminum rolling mill.
The first coil was run on the mill on the 23rd of June, the
team picture is below:

A local Professor of Fine Arts at Lycoming College, Roger
Shipley, has expressed his feelings about the region in the
phrase: "there are places here that you would not believe
exist on this earth." (Quote from the Williamsport
Chamber of Commerce) We found this to be true.
There was a bit of entertainment in town in the
evenings as well..
