There's a club, there's the International Club of D.C. You can get on there, email us for free. And there's Events DC, which is another one that is a competitor. They do embassy events. Some of them are free, some of them are not. Tonight's was not free. The Austrian Embassy has a lot of events and they're almost always free. Concerts by Conservatory students, sometimes there will be people turning in the United States. I've met the Ambassador several times, the Ambassador from Austria. I met the Ambassador from Serbia on Friday night at the Serbian Embassy. Nothing special about getting invited really. You get on the mailing list and you get a ticket. Again, some of them are free, some of them are not. And they check you against the list. Some of the embassies are quite large, as the French Embassy is. And Serbia is a small, kind of cozy embassy. But it's a lot of fun. You see a lot of the same people at these events. And if you like to travel and you're curious about the world, it is quite interesting and I've enjoyed that. Not personal at all, Bill. I like to see people at these events and I like to meet people. K7WFB, this is AF4LL. Well, thank you Bill. That is absolutely fascinating. I had no clue there was a perk like that for living in that area. That is fascinating, makes me really envious. That just plain sounds like fun. Thanks so much. Well, let's see what KK7KHE Adam has to say. What's up? Oh, you're meshtastic Adam, aren't you, I think. Pardon me if I'm wrong. K7WFB, over to you. Good evening, this is KK7KHE Adam in Pocatello, southeastern Idaho. Not meshtastic, all-star node. Here I got a clear node. It's one of the greatest little devices I ever ordered. Pocket to you guys tonight on my 30-plus year vintage DHC1000 Motorola radio. It's one of the best sounding radios I have. It's one of the only ones I have that has complete logistics in it or logics in it. It's not like a radio on a chip like most of my QITs and my MAL things and stuff. So hopefully I sound pretty good to you guys. Didn't do a lot today, just some gardening, hanging out with my pets, waiting for my wife to get off work. Back to net. Have a great evening. KK7KHE. Adam, thank you so much. Pardon for the confusion. Adam up in Shoreline here in western Washington who does a lot with meshtastic. I guess your call just reminded me of his. But yeah, that Motorola, an old equipment I understand, just had really good audio. Yours is a little bit hot I think, but sounds really, you know, we can hear you. That's for sure. Sounds great. Thanks for checking in. Let's talk to Robert. KK7ZRY. Robert. Good evening everybody on the net. Glad to be with you this evening. I have an interesting dilemma. I was working today, I was rebuilding a deck, and I have a shop smith, a 1954 sort of all-in-one tool. I primarily use it as a table saw. Last weekend a friend of mine though, at his own house, had a little nip. He took a tip of a finger off. The kind of thing always scares me. It kind of begs the question, when is it time to say, you know what, I need to own a table saw anymore. So I'm looking at this beloved old piece of equipment and I'm asking myself that question. But anyway, that's a question without a solution. I do have a question though. I've got a radio question. That's a relative newbie. I got my ticket in March I think. I hear people use the word motoscope or motor scope. I do not know if I'm hearing that correctly. I do know what it is. It sounds like some sort of magic device and I am curious to know what it is. So I'll send it back to the net. KK7ZRY. Robert, thank you so much. This is K7WFP in Seattle. Not magic at all. It is the net you're listening to, created and sponsored by Puget Sound for PETA Group, uses a network of let's say hot five or six ears. In other words, the system has one, two, three, four, five, six, six hearing locations spaced around the Puget Sound. So we're sort of Puget Sound, sort of a bowl. So all around the bowl are these five stations in the mountains. And then the system samples the best signal coming in on a very frequent basis, milliseconds I believe, and the system votes for which one is getting the best signal and that's the one that passes on to the repeater. So that's why we call it a voterscope and you can find it for yourself if you go to our main page, psrg.org and let me just take a look. It's pretty easy to find if I remember. Let's see, where do you find it? Well actually if you go on the main page, if you just look over to the right, you'll see the two meter voterscope, also a six meter one. So that's what it is, no big magic. By the way, you've made some contacts before this I assume? This isn't your first contact as a HAN is it? No, I'm a regular visitor to the net. I work full time so I can't check in every day, but I do check in once or twice a week for sure. And do enjoy it, kk7zry. Very good, yeah I just, it's good to have you and as you know you're welcome anytime. I remember that Shopsmith stuff back from the 50s and yeah in the 50s, 50 wasn't the priority and fingertips were vulnerable, still are of course. I had a radio arm saw from the 60s, just as lethal and I came to the position where you are thinking about it a number of years ago and decided it was time. You can always get one of those super new table saws that have the immediate stop feature, you know, where they demonstrate with frankfurters rather than your fingers. They're pretty cool, so why don't you hang in there, I guess they cost a bit though. Anyway, thank you for stopping by Robert, love to have you, come by anytime. Let's talk to an, oh I can't even talk, Brooks, let's talk to you Brooks, come ahead."},{"callsign_confidence":0.94,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-07-25T22:18:49+00:00","id":10257,"node_number":"oldsys","recording_id":10256,"text":" I'm actually in Cumberland, Maryland, which is about two hours west of Arlington.

This is Rebecca, KK7IJZ and it's 9 o'clock, 9pm Pacific time and it's time now for the PSRG. 9 o'clock social nets. We do three nets of these days. Three nets a day, every day. 9am noon and 9pm all Pacific time. And yeah, what is today? August 8th. It's August 8th. Let's see here. I'll be your net host for tonight. This is a directed social net that happens three times a day. 9am noon and 9pm on the WW7 PSRG 2 meter repeater, which is located on Capitol Hill in Seattle, Washington. This repeater is operated by the Puget Sound repeater group and it operates at a frequency of 146.96 with a negative offset and PL tone of 103.5. All licensed hams and new licensees just getting started are welcome to join. If you have third party traffic, we'd like to hear from them too. We encourage you to press that button and tell us about yourself, your radio projects, or just about anything else as long as it's suitable for our general audience. I'll be compiling lists of stations that would like to check in and then I'll ask for your reports. If you'd like to check in only, just let me know that you'll be in and out, also called an I O. Please limit your reports to three minutes so that I can get as many stations in as possible. Three minutes is also when the repeater times out. Speaking of timing out, I'm still good. When you're finished with your report, please end with your call sign. So good to be here again. This is Rebecca, KK7IJZ. Let's get this thing started. Please come ahead now with your call sign and name, RF and internet. KAL9, Gulf Hotel, Victor, AA9, E, HVN, and Seattle. AF4LL, AF4LL, Bill N. Arlington. Good morning. Located in Shelton, Washington.

Please come ahead with your report. Well, good evening Rebecca. So I was up in Edmonds at Gallery North today and we sold a few things. And we, I played outside for a little bit and talked to some interesting people and some not so interesting people. I don't have an act of spotting when a conversation is going to go awry. So sometimes I get stuck in these conversations where all I can do if I want to make any money is to say, hey, you know, I'm trying to work here. Because otherwise I won't make any money because the guy is blocking the audience. It's just not so great. People like that don't take what I'm doing seriously and it's frustrating. Anyway, and I think I'm close to getting my D minor Christmas carol thing resolved. Let all mortal flesh keep silence as a Christmas carol, but my arrangement of it, I'm not happy with the way it sounds yet. I don't think I can get it ready in time, so I want to drop that. I want to add a little bit of money, a little bit of pizza money. But yeah, it was a lovely day. I'm going to go to the next meeting. Well, thank you so much, Ann, for your report. I hope you were able to make a little bit of money, a little bit of pizza money. But yeah, it was a lovely day out here. I'm sure that Edmonds was lovely as well. That gallery is such a great spot. This downtown Edmonds is so cute. Gallery North. I really enjoyed it. It's a wonderful variety of artists. It was a great spot. Thank you for your report, Ann. Let us know how your progress is going. All of your projects, all of your artistic ventures. 33 and all the numbers. And next on the list is Bill in Arlington, AF4LL, KK79JZ. Hey, Bill. Well, bless your heart. Oh, my gosh, Rebecca. Always glad to hear you, glad to hear the net. KK79JZ AF4LL and good morning from beautiful historic Arlington, Virginia. I am literally next to the Arlington Cemetery, Fort Meyer, and Iwo Jima, Iwo Jima, my name is. Beautiful here. The temperature is very much. It's nice to have the window open for me. I'm always glad to check into your net and the repeater here. Next to the back, Rebecca, 73 KK79JZ. This is AF4LL. Well, Bill, thank you so much for checking in and giving a report. I always appreciate you coming by and saying hi. It's good to hear from you and have a wonderful weekend. It's beautiful here. I can only imagine what it's like in Arlington. Have a fun weekend. And fun and exciting weekend as usual. 73, Bill, thanks for stopping by. Next on the list is California K4HD. Please come ahead with your report. Good evening, Rebecca, am I on the net? It's the kiddos' last full weekend before going to school. It's my younger daughter starting the seventh grade here. It's pretty exciting. We're looking forward to tomorrow evening, early morning, Sunday. We've got the photo moon and the planet alignment. So we'll be out hopefully on top of the summit somewhere. Have I had a great, safe weekend. 73 K4HD, back to net. Well, that's exciting, Kevin. Thank you so much for sharing. And, yeah, let us know how it goes.

Appreciate the encouragement. I know this is tough because I'm realizing that one of the things you have to deal with when you're doing a net is all the texts that it jacks into you. So, anyway, I look forward to seeing you tomorrow. And next is definitely Brooks' better half, Megan K9MLR. Over to you. Good evening to you, Dean, and hello to Jack and everyone else out there on the net. K9MLR, Megan here at home in Newcastle. Excited to hear you out there tonight, but definitely more excited to see everyone tomorrow for the ice cream social. As Brooks mentioned, it was a very busy day. We have been very busy, but lots of things getting done, and I'm a little bit envious. My brother moved into a very beautiful view of the apartment. He is in South Lake Union, so the apartment faces back towards the Space Hill and towards the water there. So, yeah, a little bit close to that, but I'm not sure of the city life. I definitely like living in the suburbs, but that's just my personal thing. Anyway, thank you for being that excited for tomorrow. I've got all the tickets right by the door so I don't forget them. See you all tomorrow at 73. K9MLR. Thanks, Megan. Yeah, I look forward to seeing these tickets. I have a feeling they're not your typical, I mean there's been a lot of fanfare going on about them, so I'll be looking forward to that. So thanks for checking in and gracing our net tonight. Next, we have another person. Well, everybody on here is a person, but let's just give it up for Rebecca KK7IJZ. Well, Dean, the joke's on you, I'm not a person. Boom! I have a figment of everyone's imagination. Just joking. Dean! You're doing it. You're doing it. You're doing it. I'm so excited. You can't see me do my happy dance, but it's happening. But anyway, I had a great day. It was a wonderful, wonderful day. I spent most of the day in my PJs. I get to see some of your little faces. I got to hear Madeline be your first check-in. What a day. August 9th goes down in the books as the day the Dean goes to the net. 88 and 73 and all the numbers Dean and KK7IJZ. And 33 and 64 and 70. Say again, all of the ladies. Thanks, Rebecca. I appreciate you checking in. Well, I just appreciate you in general. So, yeah, it's always good to say hi to, say hi to Andy for me as well. Next we got Justin, KK7QES. How are you, Justin? Well, hello, Dean. 73. I have never heard you and Jack calling at 9 p.m. now. Either of you. But it is so good to hear both of you. I was out late and was expecting to hear Rich and Bill. I think they are both well. But I'm so excited to hear you taking over my control. Anyway, super cool. You're doing a great job. I haven't really heard much of any help, but you're all doing great. Anyway, I've had a great day. Lots of time outside in the garden. Just, I don't know. It helps me just feel completely relaxed. And I got my cucumber trellis back under control. My jalapenos are so close to being ready for harvest. I'm really excited about that. I'm trying to convince my girls to eat a jalapeno with me. They are not enthusiastic so far, but we'll see. And then some other boring yard chores. And then this afternoon I installed a pulley system in my girls' bedroom. So about a year ago I built them some loft beds. And they wanted a pulley system with a bucket to be able to move things up and down. So we finally got that done. And they've been playing with that all evening. It's been really fun. And quite hilarious listening to them. And then lastly, I'm just watching the Marius game. And it's really cool. Tonight was the ceremony for retiring hero number 51 prior to the game. It was a really cool ceremony. And it seems like the entire, all the guys you would expect from the 95 team to be there. And the 2001 guys and all that. Anyway, a really fun game to be watching. Dean, I hope you're doing great. Thank you for running the night tonight. And Jack as well. I'll send it back. KK7 QES. AF4LL. AF4LL. AF4LL. Good afternoon from your in-depth interview with NYS. We've no further traffic coming in and out for the future. So much for coming in and I hope things go well for you over in the Philippines. And next we've got, we have Jeff, B6MB. Down in Bolivia, before I ended up, Jeff lives not too far from where I grew up. He lives over in Union City, which is about, oh, I don't know, he's on the other side of the, I grew up in Palo Alto. So he's about 10 or 15 miles from where I grow up. So I know his area. And then we're going to head over to you, Jeff. Okay, Dean, I'm going to preach to you host of the net. I said, you know, I can't miss this. I got to go support Dean there. I'm feeling great there. I wouldn't expect to go west. Yeah, here at San Francisco Bay Area, it was about, we got up in the mid-80s. It's a warm day and it's 78 degrees out there right now. But, you know, not a sunny day then. Yeah, just watching the Dodgers win the game and hopefully the Mariners are doing the same. I root for the Dodgers, so always good. The hometown team. Okay, great job to you, Dean. Keep up the good work, AB6MB. All right, Jeff, thanks a lot. I appreciate your check-in. And yes, the next and the last person on this list is AF4LL Bill from Arlington, Virginia. And before I hand it over to you, I always enjoy when you check in because I've heard you mention that your apartment or your home overlooks the Iwo Jima memorial. And my father used to live, like, there's no way you don't live like one or two buildings or maybe even in the same building. It was a 1200 North Nash Street in a building called Prospect House. So I know that area in the back of my hand. So, yeah, over to you, AF4LL. Well, good morning from Iwo Fort Historic, Arlington, Virginia. Yeah, that's about right. I'm very close to Iwo Jima, Fort Meyer, Arlington Cemetery. I'm seven floors up. I have a wonderful view of the area. I have a two meter station here and a ten meter station. I've worked a hundred and three hundred to a cycle with a hand stick and a strike to nine five five and a President Lincoln two plus. So intent on doing real well. I enjoy getting on that going here also, sir. And I've been on this net soup numerous times, as you have pointed out. And let me get your call to the log, please. I've been here many years ago. Hi. Hi. I love pretty much everything. So I'm glad to be here this morning. It's beautiful. It's going to be about 60 degrees by morning. And like I said, the view is tremendous. Coming and going right to Reagan National all the time to see the Pentagon, to see the Jefferson Memorial, to see the Kennedy Center. So I got a pretty good view here. And yeah, you seem like you know the area. Back to you, sir. Again, if I can get your name and your call for the log. This is AF4LL. This is repeater station Kilo, Kilo, and of course my whole son Kilo Gulls, Sadwin, Oscar, and my name is Dean. So yeah, again, always enjoy having you check in. And we'll hear you soon. So just before the rubber meets the road, I'm going to hand the mic over to Jack. KI7RMU over to you. G70D. Alright, the great round nicely played my friends. Fantastic. We'll see. That's what greatness can do right there. Alright, this is Jack KI7RMU. I'm going to read the announcement. That is one announcement. And that is for tomorrow, Sunday, August 10th, PSRG, Season 7, Episode 5, The Rain or Shine Net, and Ice Cream Social at Green Lake. We're in the lake and on our website to find out all the details. PSRG.org. It's a new net host by Kamri and Robert. You heard them here earlier. And we're celebrating summer and the recent marriage of Brooks and Megan. Megan has purchased some special tickets to get your ice cream treat at the Green Lake Cafe and stand right nearby. And boy do they have a lot to choose from. That place is well stocked. Alright, that is the announcement. We have lots more, but I just want to get to that one right there. Alright, this is Jack KI7RMU. This is the 9 o'clock net, 936P. Let's get some more check-ins. Come in. Call, sign, and name. 7, this is Fox 5 Bravo, Bill, A7WXC. Alright, I got Bill. Who is here? Station 7 was Bill. Come ahead. J, J7, RJL, Fermison. RJL, what else do we have?

Well, I didn't say anything, but I did press the button. I can, I can simulcast. And yes, I heard everybody else that didn't say anything. But, yes, I am here, Jack. KI7, BZ. Well, I heard a K, and I knew it was you. That's how I knew that. That's interesting. Alright, well, we didn't say anything, but I don't know if I'm just, I'm hallucinating like Chad, HPT4. Chad, HPT5 apparently did lots of lists. Alright, Jim, I'm gonna put you on the list. Who else? Sam, 7, I'm going with our guest. Chris is calling 9-0. Hey, Steve, you're at the Los Angeles Home Station with the I.O. Come back, please leave your call, sign and name. Kilo, I'm an officer, Julia, Kilo, KSM and OJK, Chris is calling, I.O., good evening. Hey, Chris, nice to hear you. Thank you so much for your call, I.O. tonight. You have a good night and enjoy the rest of the weekend, KSM and OJK. Let's take one more station, please, for round three. K-3 is the low east. Alright, we got Rich in there. Yeah, so, Rich, you've been fishing. We'll explain that when we get to you. Alright, let's go back to Bill, K7WFB. Bill, did you co-host you tonight? What were you? I did co-host you, indeed. That is so good of you both for Rich and me since we're both out of town. Thank you so much, lovely to hear from all my Saturday night friends. I'm up here in Qualicum Beach, British Columbia on Vancouver Island with my wife for staying a week or so and just have a nice place on the shores of the Gulf of Brazil looking kind of northeast back into the interior. Very pretty. And talking about pretty, if you've got a window you can pump your head out, go look at the moon coming up, it's especially pretty tonight. My wife is just coming in the door telling me it's unbelievable. We had a great day today. There was a little airport up here we hadn't been to before. We found there was a restaurant there so we wanted to check it out and there were these four guys standing there and they were going skydiving the business where you're kind of two pros and you latch onto the, you know, they strap you to their belly, I guess it is. Their plane came up and they told us to go home so he zoomed off about a 15 minute drive to this field and watched them jump on the plane for the first time, the two guys for the first time from 10,000 feet. It was a great time. There were actually three of them all together, three college students, one from Japan, one from Germany, one from the United States, one from the United States. That's the whole axis, isn't it? I didn't realize that. Anyway, very nice kids and took some photos and videos. We're going to send them. Anyway, we had a lot of fun. Good fun day. Back to you Jack, and to you and Dean. Lovely talking to you. Good to see you. You organized your bill, thank you so much. Come ahead KJ7RJL. Just a quick question there Jack, how's my perception coming in because you guys are a little tired on my interest. I'm going to go to the airport tomorrow because of my transportation. Accessing isn't going to get me to vote on time or the posters coming back to place again. I'm going to take a seat and grab a t-shirt set for the transportation. I guess you can get three ice creams tomorrow because I was going to bring Chat with me. I was going to sell some of those tickets over there. Like I said, I probably only have 10 left. Where the amateur radio club and I do the polo shot in. I didn't want to be over there. Let me drop a sec. Yeah, well, seeing you there doing that and receiving back to when I was over there working and then seeing him talk with a few other people. I'm going to put vinyl records and everything and the colors and whatever, how big they were and how small they were and all the collections that he's got. Wow. Yes, I want to be very nice though. We have the spot at Green Lake where it is shady. Check that today. After dinner, we wrote on the cycle, I put lights on the cycle. I talked about that so we can be out now as sunset is getting sooner and sooner and sooner. We can be out after dark now because we now have bad lights. And then all the time, evening all night was the beautiful, beautiful moonrise tonight. This is the time of the year that the moon rises over the hills on the other side of the lake. It was absolutely spectacular tonight. And then we get to top it off with a nine o'clock. What a fantastic day. So anyway, back everybody from there on the East side. And hope you guys have a fantastic time tomorrow at the Rain or Shine. It's going to be all shine and a lot of ice cream. So anyway, back to Jack's Delties everybody. This is Jim and Tina, Tina Lake, K7. Good to see you, Zach. Alright, well Jim, thank you so much for checking in. Of course, enjoy your great Sunday out there, dear Lake. Hope you get a lot of skiing and it'll be a lot of fun. Alright, let's go talk to my neighbor now. N70WG Steve, we're going to hear you on a Saturday night. Go ahead. I'll often check in to the nine o'clock but a big thing's been happening here at 32nd Northeast. First off, I want to ask a question. Is anybody else experiencing the kind of a clipping of audio? It kind of reminds me of an imitation of it. So when you're talking and it sounds like this... It's breaking up the audio. I wonder if it's just smooth, the skin would hear or is it coming across to everyone. That's number one. Any comment on that, Jack? We're not imagining that it is real. We did not get a chance to restart the machine before the internet. I apologize but I would like to do that if we can. Maybe do a quick restart but I don't want to compromise the net at this point. So we're going to continue on but it doesn't sound that bad. It's not like Lloyd Bridges in Steak Hunt. But anyway, it is a little broken up but we're just going to continue. Go ahead, Steve. That's 7GWG, KI7RMU. KI7RMU and 7GWG. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I thought it might be one of the settings on the squelch, you know, clipping off to the signals at my end. The main thing here was that 48 hours ago we had a backup, a sewer backup in the house and we got some folks to come out and they said, We'll cut it for 99 bucks. I said, that's a deal, that's a deal. But of course, then they cambered the sewer line and said, if you want to get rid of this reoccurring problem with ruts and stuff, we can line the 35 foot of your sewer line and you'll never, never have to do anything again. And Donna and I looked at Donna and Donna looked at me and we went, Oh, jeez, that's another trip we can't afford now. But we bought it and these guys were on site within two hours, cutting the hole down to our sewer line and today they came back and they finished this super duper kind of a lining of the, they put this, this, this kind of phrase. A big condom in the line and it's with epoxy and they stuff another line that, that, that, they said, they ballooned and it forces the epoxy to the surface of the old line. And then thirdly, they stuffed this electrical lighting, the blue light, the blue light down there and it cures the epoxy and then they pull this all out and you're done for another 100 years. I'm not telling you how much it cost, but it was really interesting to see it done. And so that's, that's the last 48 hours of our house and 7 GWG. Alright Steve, yeah, that's a great process they have and so that way they don't have to bring in the ditch witch and dig up your yard and do all that and then, you know, charge you all that money. So it is somewhat easy, that's for sure. Well, you know, maybe you can go to Fife or something instead of Europe, I don't know, maybe some place like that, not too far away. Anyway, good to hear you and say hi to Don and say hi to the dozer and thank you so much Steve, good to hear you my friend. And of course Steve lives not too far from me, you're in Northern Seattle. Alright we're going to go and I'm going to acknowledge Chris with his check-in, KF70JK and TIO. We're going to go talk to the fisherman and he's going to have to explain that now, he just posted something a bit on the Facebook group. Rich, K30E, West Seattle, how are you? Well good evening Jack and everyone. Well, I haven't had any adventure like Steve had, that's for sure, thank goodness. But yeah, I'm fishing for singles this evening. I got the old fishing net out and, you know, I just a few screws and a couple of clamps so I can attach the cable and by golly, the SWR is good and it's working great. So I get right about that, that's for sure. Anyway, first up, well, got a little quilt project done, let's see, tomorrow I'm going to bring some stuff that you might want to take along to at least a few things along to donate so I'll have those and yeah, so anyway looking forward to ice cream. Back to you K2E. Alrighty now, alright, well do you think you might have to share some with Pueblo too or possibly risk losing a kneecap? Entirely possible Jack, oh my goodness, I don't know if the place there has pumped guts but we'll find out. In any case, he will be along and I've heard, the rumor has it there's going to be a lot of huffs tomorrow. Back to you K3O8. Yeah, that's for sure, and Green Lake was packed today and they do have a water bowl outside for dollars at the Green Lake Cafe which is really nice of them, they're a great group. Alright, well thank you Mitch, have a good evening, you get some sleep too and stay out of Pueblo for us and we'll talk to you soon. Let's get it over now to Dean, KG70DB with round 14. Take it away please. Thank you Jack, I gotta tell ya, I think the full moon is bringing them out tonight. So anyway this is Dean, KG70DB and we're going to go to round 4. Call sign and name.

But yeah, I'm 33 to Elaine. My notes being choppy, so sorry about that. Today I went to the thrift store because there's 50% off of all summer stuff and I have a 20% discount. So I kind of raced in, got some good things. None of them have just been kind of sticking around that much. I ventured out to the PCC in Burien. It's the closest one to my house here in Tacoma. And yeah, I got some fun groceries. They have all kinds of fun vegan treats there that are different than the ones here. But anyway, yeah, just listening into the net and it's nice to hear everybody.

Well, thank you, Rebecca. Yeah, it's good to hear your comments too. You have quite a deal at the thrift store with 50% off and then a discount also. Pretty good. You're mixing vegan treats. I've made a discovery. I'm lactose intolerant. So I have not been going to ice cream shops at all. Well, I go, but I watch my grandkids get ice cream. But I just didn't realize that some of these shops now have vegan stuff, which is of course lactose, no lactose. So I have been a happy customer at Molly Moon's at their new location down on the waterfront for their coconut chunks. I love it. So after 40 years, I'm eating ice cream again. Anyway, who's interested in taking a look at that page? Rebecca mentioned, just let me give you his call again. It's AF4LL. Very good. Thanks, Rebecca.
