Things are changing there as well. Breakfast, Pepper Mill breakfast is not included. So you do have to go out and buy it. They have a lot of good restaurants. Even though we like to walk down to the Atlantis and enjoy some of the restaurants there as well as the venues there. The nice thing about Pepper Mill is it's just a really nice facility. We've always enjoyed it. But, I'm just wondering, you know, they don't have any problems. The part I don't blame them on is they don't have any problems filling the place up. So no matter what they charge, the place is packed all the time. Even the casinos pack all the time. So my theory is as long as people are willing to pay those fees, they're going to charge those fees. Comment? Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. My apologies, there was a comment in there and I forgot to get back to you. Comment, go ahead. Morning guys, this is WA60. Yeah, H causes SRI. It's funny you should mention this, Graydon. There's an article in the newspaper yesterday about the hotel owners in Vegas screaming about tourism drops. And they said that the numbers for June is down 11.3% compared to last year. And the hotel industry has had to drop the price of 6.5% while the average daily room rates have lowered to $163. You know, you do have a pony in this race and that is, as a consumer, don't go there. So I think what you're seeing in Reno is what they're seeing in Vegas and it's starting to show the consumers are staying away. That's a very good point and I agree totally with you. That's why we've cut back. We've cut back to just the week, you know, we don't stay the weekend, we don't enjoy the weekend there anymore. But we have the option, we're going to, you know, fortunately we have the option of the house and home. You can go back and forth from the house and home to Reno. It's a little less convenient as far as the time you spend commuting back and forth. And if you can't take a break from different parts of the venue, go back to your room, do some other things, or go to other places. So we have options, so we're fortunate. Anyway, I better let you get back to the net. Everyone have a great day. I'll be checking in from Reno, giving some reports on. I don't know if anybody else is going up there for a hug or fights, but it's something we enjoy every year. Probably the main part we enjoy is getting together with all the good friends that we have. Can't see you successfully. Hey Graydon, before you run away, I saw a quick byline last week. Something about California changing the registration for classic and antique cars. And I didn't read the article, I was just curious if you heard anything about that. California has been trying for decades now to bring back a smog lawless for all cars of any age. Some of the older cars don't have much in the way of smog, but they want the smog check. They want the process of actually putting you through that, charging at these and so forth. It's been fought by SEMA, the Special Equipment Manufacturers Association, that go to that show in Vegas every year. SEMA has done a good job pushing that on. Jay Leno has personally taken that on. I think he called Jay Leno's office trying to get that permanent exemption for collector cars. The argument is, and it's a valid argument, I use it with mine, is that these car cars are not driven a lot. They're not driven very many miles a year, and from a contribution to the road and maintenance, a contribution to environmental issues, they are not a significant factor. But they are a source of revenue, and the state's looking at that.
