Well, good morning to you, Josh. And howdy to the Calabonganetta N7ECV here, H-I-T-I. I'm in Oregon this time around. I think I've moved down here. We'll see how it pans out. I'm in the Rogue River Valley. And this is a famous area for, they call it the Rogue River and Rogue Valley back in the 1800s. There were a few bands of natives that refused to leave the area. And they were the rogue Indians. So they actually went to, I think they call it Table Rock, and gathered there in a couple last stands. I'm actually in the Umpqua Joe region, we call it. And Umpqua Joe was a mix of Mexican Indian and American Indian. And while the battles were raging back and forth, there were still a lot of people trying to forge the Rogue River. And Umpqua Joe was actually the one that would help people back and forth across the river. And he was so tied into the way the world was working at the time, when they threw everybody else on a reserve, they actually gave Umpqua Joe a few acres of land in his own name. He was one of the first natives to actually be deeded of white man's land, they would say. So he actually didn't have to leave the valley and died on his land out here. A lot of history down in these woods. There's a lot of native history down here. Anyway, I don't know a whole lot of the area. I'm still kind of new. Been one heck of a few weeks out here. Boy, I got rear-ended in August and just got rear-ended in my company rig yesterday. I imagine it's going to happen one more time for everything happens in three, so I'm waiting for that. But holy cow, I feel like I've been beat up by my car yet again. I'm trying to get the day rolling here. Got to freaking pack up the Airbnb this morning and jump onto another one or another place to stay for the month and still try to hunt down something permanent. That's what I got this morning there, Josh. Thanks for picking me up, and enjoy the Texas weather. and send an ACB with the group. Back to you.
