I am. I am a career firefighter in Greensboro, which is in the tenor of North Carolina, the third largest city in Charlotte, Raleigh, then Greensboro. And I've been a firefighter for about 16 years. I got into it a little bit late in life for that type of profession. I was 34 when I got into it. But it's good. It's good. I worked yesterday. It's a 24-on, 24 hours. I'm 48 hours off duty schedule, which is fairly typical across the country, but that's not how it is everywhere. So, yeah, so I'm home today. And I'll go back to work. Yesterday was Monday. I'll go back to work on Thursday for 24 hours. So, yeah, and things are good. I was our... I've been a dog owner most of my adult life or had dogs as part of my family is more how I kind of like to refer to it and own. But... And two and a half years ago, my 90-pound lab boxer mix crossed over the Rainbow Bridge at 14 years old. And basically, I had a little bit of a break two and a half years before bringing another dog into the family. So it's going good. And now we got a 10-pound dog as opposed to a 90-pound dog, which is a whole different universe. But overall, things are good. And I'm checking in through All-Star, as you can guess. And I've checked in a handful of times on this net. But, yeah, I'm relatively new to amateur radio. About... I got my ticket about 10 months ago. I'm chipping away at general material and just enjoying the ride and enjoying learning. And it's been a real positive experience. So overall, that's the story from Greensboro.
