Well, good afternoon Jack and everyone, WW7KN here in Newport. Well Jack, no, maybe one or two leaves if you look closely are turning. But I want to tell you, last night was one of the most spectacular lightning storms. It went on for two hours and everyone in the area here says the storm was right on top of us. Pam and I sat on the back porch for an hour and a half and the rain was coming down, we got maybe three quarters of an inch, easily over half an inch. And the lightning was all around us, above us, on the side of us. We sat out there, I got some pretty good pictures. Maybe I'll post a couple of them. I took some videos and then went through them frame by frame and then captured it. And I don't think the pictures do it justice because it was lighting up like daylight. The thunder went on and on at one point for half an hour. It was just a constant rumble. The rumble from the thunder never stopped. It was one of the best shows I've seen in probably 20 years. And I love a good thunderstorm. So, nope, fall is here and it came in with a vengeance last night. But it was, we needed the rain, but what a spectacular show to sit and watch. But, you know, and I wish it was on the other side. Hey Michael up there in Whitehorse. And Grossie, wish I was on the other side here, Jack, because I'd hunt Grossie down. I need to have some welding done and I know he does a great job and he'd give me a few tips. But I'm still working on my brackets for my hex beam. I got all the cabling done. Yesterday during the SEOC game at halftime, went in and soldered up a bunch of stuff. So we're working on that. Otherwise than that, just enjoying a Monday and catching up actually on the Kansas City New York Giants game right now. So with that, 73s everyone. You all have a great week. WW7KN. Pam and Molly, back to you Jack.
