pretty intense. Lightning can get pretty aggressive too. That's how a lot of the fires in California and stuff start. Around me though, once the fires start, frankly people are not using smarts. A lot of them, I think most of them around me actually were started by cigarettes. And that Bear Goldspire, the big one that's near me, was actually started by a firework. That's for sure, yeah. Fortunately, you know, people are curious on that, especially when it's warm. You don't realize, you know, there's one little small spark, and you've got the woods are so dry, and the forest floor is so dry, and it's a small little spark, and it's like a tinderbox, up she goes, you know. And we're not sure what started the fires here, could it be a campers or whatever, but I do know that the province of Nova Scotia, that is to the west of us here, that there's Newfoundland, and that and then you look at the map and you go over and see Nova Scotia. Nova Scotia is so dry up there. This week they made, the government made an announcement that all the forest area people stay away out of all the forest as much as they can. It's a ban on going into the forest until about September. And at the same time there last week they made an announcement here in Newfoundland that now, from now until the middle of September, there's no open fires to be lit up anywhere, and that it's so dry. And I looked at that, I mowed my lawn there a couple of weeks ago, and it's just now starting to go up a little small bit, but in between a drought today, you can see it is getting burned, so that's what I do. I let it grow a few inches and then I'll mow it again. I'll have to water it now tomorrow on that, and I couldn't find my sprinkler, so I have to go out now to Walmart or someplace, or Canadian Tire tomorrow now and see if I can come up with a sprinkler and water it down and that, so there you go. Anyway, we're not going to hold it. Thanks very much, Hawker, for coming back to us. It's certainly nice to meet you here this evening on the offset. As I'm going through V01-XMT, repeat, I'm 447-250 here in St. John's. Repeater's not too far away from me. And that's all, so there you are. And we'll pass it back to you for your final there. Kilo Kilo 7, November Quebec November, as a Carrasco 1 X-ray hotel. Yeah, it's nice talking to you too. I haven't really been that positive on the radio recently. I've been working on stuff. Just getting back into Taunton-Clevel. It's a nice chatting again. And yeah, the restrictions and stuff on us get pretty intense too. They put us under what's called Red Fly Warning, and when they Red Fly Warning, you're not allowed to use gas lawn equipment, you're not allowed to use barbecuers, you're not allowed to be in any public forest land, you're not allowed to have gas vehicles parked on any grass, or being parked on gravel or pavement. It gets intense, but I mean, it's needed. Here two years ago, I had to fight off a forest fire off my house here. You look on Google Maps, and you get curious, my address is on the doors either. You can look at Google Maps, there's a big black area coming right up to my house there. And yeah, that was exciting. Anyways, nice talking to you. Maybe see you around again, hopefully. OK, fine business, Hunter. And all the best to you and yours. 7-3, and keep safe with the modifiers. 7-3, the 01X-8's mobile are clear.
