Yeah, thank you very much. Thank you much. Yeah, I guess I was seeing my wife off to the surgery room and we were close to colony. So it was like it was pretty nice there. You know, it's a big difference from what I remember this hospital. I was here for surgery about 15 years ago and it made a lot of good changes. So I'm feeling a lot more comfortable with this place. The only reason why we used this place in the first place was the doctor that she went to was number one in the Kansas City area for this particular thing. So here's nose and throat. So you got to go where he goes for surgery, right? So animals, let's see here. You know, I got the chihuahuas and they're not vicious animals by no means. In fact, they're the most quaint patient chihuahuas I've ever known in my life. So that's not a big deal even though we live in a suburb of Kansas City, we keep finding all kinds of animals around the house. Let me see here. We got the, what do you call it? The buzzer hawk, chicky hawk, buzzer hawk. They're always flying around. These are pretty big birds around here. And I'm always afraid because my one dog is six pounds and the other dog is rather 10 pounds now. And these things are big enough to take and swoop them up and fly away. So we got to be really careful with that. We go outside, we make sure that we look up and see if there's anything around. And we've had a couple of owls in our yard. They seem to hang around our place. Same thing at night. You got to be careful with that. These are some pretty big owls. Beautiful creatures, you know, but you know, they're most definitely meat eaters. Everything I'm naming off here is something to kill my dog easily. And then we have like gophers. Now I haven't seen a gopher a long time. I see them out in Kansas all the time, but I didn't see them in Missouri. And there's one hanging around our house there too. I'd chase it away the other day. These things are pretty timid though. You get up to them and yell at them and they run like a bat out of hell. And you don't see them for days on end after that. So you got that. And what else do we have? Raccoons. I've seen one of them. And a, what do you call them? Possum. Occasionally we get a possum. On the north side of town one time, reset. On the north side of town one time we were living in a townhouse and we had some friends over and we're at the kitchen table and we're having a good time. And all of a sudden this possum comes up on the back porch and it jumps up on the, it was a glass sliding door. Like he wants to come in, you know, like a puppy, you know, let me in, let me in. And here my daughter, she was about four at the time, she walked by that way, they saw that animal and was proceeding to let that possum into our house. No, don't do that. So I was listening about what you were talking about, being a little squirmish about the fish and putting worms on the hook and stuff like that, though. And I used to be that way until I got down to Arkansas and this guy taught me everything to know, I should know about hunting and fishing and he got me over that after a while. You just got to keep up with it and eventually you, it's an everyday thing, you can do it. But we're not much, I'm not much into hunting anymore. I haven't done that in a long time. I plan to pick up some fishing when I start retiring. I figure that'd be the end of the thing you could keep me, I don't know, well, I'll, I'll kin to that after not being around fishing for the last 40 years or so. Anyhow, that's, that's my report this time around. Back to that control, KB0MAI.
