All those canal boats are pretty interesting. If I were, I don't know if I'm going to make it to Great Britain, but one of the reasons I would go would be because of the canal boats. I mean the canal system was replaced by the railroads and it was kind of abandoned and forgotten, but there have been in the recent decades the canal system in a lot of places has been revived because it's historical and it's a tourist thing too. Very long but very skinny boats and traditionally you can just pull the boat to the curb so to speak, pull the shore to the alongside the canal if there's room for passage and just stop there and just like camping, like free camping, but of course you have to have a canal boat. It's something, a tradition that they're jealously guarding, the tradition of being able to just park and tie up and just hang out as long as you want wherever. Anyway, a concept that would be foreign to the US I guess. Anyway, so thank you very much Jeff and yeah I ran the air conditioning a little bit today, but it's off now and I was fine. I just decided to cool it off a little bit in the mid-afternoon here, but it's generally been pretty fairly cool. All right, moving right along. Next we had an I.O. from Rob, Victor Echo 5, Alpha Alpha Sierra in Saskatoon and it brings us to Chris in San Antonio, Texas, K9 or KJ, sorry, start over, KJ5LZR. Chris, please give us a report. This is Joan KX2CW asking for you.
