Good morning, Joe, and all the other answers on the Worldwide Friendship Net. This is Roy, KD7WA in Salem, Oregon. Let's see, it's about 48 degrees right now, going to get up to 53. And they're talking winds up around 50 miles an hour here. So might be a few power lines go down and soggy wet. A couple of things. First, Joyce, the birthday card you shared on an email was so funny. That was really neat. Thanks for sharing that with us. And yeah, iPhone, quick story about Waze, Joe. I'm going up I-5 to Portland and it says it's really backed up. Here's the alternate route. So I pulled up and there was a truck I was behind that was really recognizable. So it sent me through all of these neighborhoods out up about three miles and I come back on the freeway right behind the truck I left when I was. So I didn't say anything. But anyhow, I do use Waze. And like everything, the neat thing with the iPhone, if you ever use Google the camera on there, man, it will identify flowers. Our neighbors had the flower that blooms all year round. I wanted it. I clicked on it. It told me what it was and all about it. You can do a tree. I took pictures of birds with that and it identifies the birds. So it's pretty cool. Another thing, I don't know, Sue's brother, Steve, world famous photographer but worked for the Seattle Times. They had $20,000 cameras and lenses and stuff. But he says 80% of their photographs were done with the iPhone. They could send it right to the paper immediately. So with all those expensive cameras, 80% of their photographs was done with an iPhone. I'm going to jump out of here before I time it out. 73's everybody. Back to neck control.
