No worries there, Bill. Hey, this is JustinKK7QES. I can't believe you'd forget about me. Anyway, thanks for having that. I wanted to mention to Paul, old funky house, check out Boroscopes. I bought one a few years ago. I've used it probably only like three times, but I need to literally see inside a wall. And you can get one that connects to your phone via Bluetooth and see what's going on back there. Anyway, I wanted to mention to I caught the tail end of you mentioning to Whit, I think it was, that you're still having some challenges with getting Mesh Core integrated with Home Assistant. If you want to shoot me an email, I'd be more than happy to see if I can help you with that. My email's on my QRZ page. The way I've got it set up, so I have Home Assistant running in a virtual machine on on Proxmox and then I have a Heltec V3 node that I flashed with the USB connected companion firmware. And so I plugged that in to my server that's running the home assistant and got that connected to the mesh core integration and from there I was then able to put a computer that's on top of the radio shed here. Super cool. It just immediately starts pulling in and telemetry data and all sorts of fun stuff. I really was wanting to use it to just monitor the level more easily and stuff like that. But it gives you a whole mess of stuff. And you can send messages from Home Assistant. And I've yet to set up any automations, but I have some ideas about that. So we'll see. Anyway, shoot me an email if you feel so inclined. I feel as of this afternoon, I have officially recovered from Christmas. It was such a wonderful time, and sometimes it wears you out. That's kind of how I felt yesterday. My in-laws work all next week, so I'm really fully in vacation mode now. I've got some music and some radio projects that I'm going to try and work on over the next week or so, but really try not to cram too much in. I think the unstructured down time is a really important thing to have every now and then. So, anyway, that's what I got. Bill, thanks for everything. I hope everyone is well out there. KK7QES. KK7QES, K7WSD, before you depart, I just, I'm always fascinated by the stories about your twin daughters. And so I'm just interested, what do you think they like the best about Christmas or of their gifts? And did they have the same opinion or different opinion?
