Hey Jack, good afternoon. And nice to check in for a wallet and I'll walk for a wallet. You'll be checking around this time on the way home. From work, it's 17-25 hours here in Newfoundland right now. And we've got a bit of rain here today and it's a much needed rain. We've had a very dry summer. And I guess the other side of some of the news in Canada that there's been a lot of forest fires. And here in Newfoundland we usually try to get one or two a year but not too much. But now this year we've had a really bad forest fire season. And there's a number of fires on the go this last three years. There's no loss of land, thank God, but some people have lost their homes and buildings and what have you. And people evacuated out of their homes and everything. So we weren't near any of it but we do get smoke coming in from the various fires. Whatever way the wind shall blow, you know. But that's very dry and people are just literally crying and praying for rain. We've got some on Friday and we've got some today. We've had more rain today than we've had all summer. And it's been very rough. It's a great way to do everything now. It's the... it's going to be forest fire fighters and get things all cleared down. And get knocked down. Most of them are somewhat contained or not as bad as they were but some are still very serious fires. But I think with the change in weather now that's going to help quite a bit so we hope so. And just the last comment there on the American Legion with a hero's lunch once a month. That's a great idea. We did have an American Legion post number nine here in St. John's for many years because here in Newfoundland there was a lot of American servants that came here during the Second World War. And they met up with young ladies from here, Newfoundland girls, and some of them went away. And a lot of them stayed. So I don't think the post is active anymore now usually up to about 20 years ago. But of course with most of the World War II movements are now near close to 100 and up like that. They never had a big following down so I think they closed it off. So there you go. Anyway, that's all from here in St. John's in St. Lawrence with a 7-3. And back to you Jack for your one X-ray hotel mobile.
