in Washington today that coming today is a good, there was a wonderful parade, and we had our pre-strike candy booth there, and it was actually a pretty good day for us. And we will be back there tomorrow from 10 till six. There's a number of other vendors and food and bands playing, so it's kind of a fun, fun outing in Covington, Washington. Parking is available at, behind the Coles, or at the Coles, that's in Covington. And everyone's welcome to come out and check it out. And then lately, my wife has been ordering the Hello Fresh dinners, and the other night, I made one that was chicken, zucchini, and polenta, and it was absolutely delicious. They're not particularly easy or fast to make and assemble, but the meals taste good, and they're healthy. Anyway, that was a little tidbit on my cooking for the week. And I don't really have much else I've been concerned with coming today, so I've been doing a little HF 20 meter stuff today, so it was a fairly wide open van. But that's it, I'll hand it back to you, my two kilo, kilo sevens, and the pepper, julienne, back to that. Thank you for letting us know about Covington day. Sounds like a lot of fun, and you got some time on that tomorrow if you wanna go there, you folks out there listening. Quick question for you, did you mention candy, was it candy stripers or something that rings a bell from years ago, tell us about that. If there's ever a girl in the hospital, or not necessarily a girl, but they traditionally were, and I forget what their role was, but we do freeze dried candy. We put candy in a traditional freeze dried machine, but it's a modified process that involves a little bit of heat and a real hard vacuum. A hard vacuum is part of the bulb freeze drying, and so is the heat, but we don't actually freeze the candy first, it's just the heat in the vacuum. It's just the molecular structure of the candy. Things that are brittle and hard, like a bit of honey, because it melts in your mouth. Lemonade's the same, like hard candy, it also melts in your mouth. Really everything that's gummy pokes up, and it's quite crispy instead of gummy and chewy. So that's pretty much a good description. Back to that. Very good, so that's what you're selling to support these young women. Well that sounds cool, let's count that as number three, a revelation to me, I have never heard of freeze dried, or actually heated and vacuum packed candy. Sounds like a unique new experience. Let's see, now we have, oh this guy, I don't know who he was, Rick somebody or other, has a funny call sign, not many characters, this could be a fraud, let's see what WB7J I think is, come in.
