Good morning there, gang. KC7THD, I go on ITEC here. Yeah, Joyce, you sure ruined the trip. That was our last drone flight. I never did fly the drone again, really. That second day, I had I think four missions or something to fly along the cliffs up there way outside the city limits. They were all planned missions out about a mile from where I was. This was a long time ago now. But anyway, we had flown the day before I think three missions and I had taken another four missions all planned, batteries all charged. She was just coming out of the motel, going to head for breakfast and tears flat right in front of me. Right in front of me. I was sitting there with the car idling, ready to go, but I was all belded in. There was no way I could catch her. It was all in slow motion in my mind and she was in terrible pain. I said, I'm going to transport you to the hospital no matter where you're at. I had that I think left over from my really active jeeping days. Believe it or not, it was to expire the next day. I mean, it's a one year sort of thing. It was to expire the next day. I happened to see that in my wallet and reactivated that and called up. They covered all the nurses and the ambulances, everything all the way from Sedona clear over to South Phoenix at the hospital down there. We didn't pay a penny. I don't know what that would have cost, probably $20,000 or so. Anyway, that was well spent. I've still got that NRA, EA Plus, even though I don't think I'll ever use it. But anyway, that's what's going on here, gang. Oh, yeah, I've got a couple of broken bones. I was climbing in the white tanks and jumping over boulders up there in West Phoenix way outside in the boonies called the White Tank Mountains. Jumping from one boulder to the other in a huge boulder field out there trying to get to some cliffs I wanted to climb. A boulder about the size of my jeep, balanced, and it moved underneath me a little bit. I was on the thing and I was using it for a springboard to the next boulder and it moved. Holy mackerel, it almost fell down in a five foot crack between both of the boulders. I slammed my wrist into another rock and kept me from falling down in there and getting maybe crushed by the boulders. So anyway, it broke my wrist. I had a five speed jeep manual transmission. I had to drive it like 50 miles back home with a broken wrist. Anyway, back in that control. KC7GHC, does that time out?
