My favorite, like, relaxation downtime, I like to fly fish. So, I don't go as much as I would like to, but I have one of those decked drawers systems in the back of my truck, and one whole side of it is all my fly fishing gear. So, I love those.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So, I'll kind of, I'll wrap it up with my, so I agree with what both of you said. I think it was very informative. A lot of good information. I appreciate it the most was it was entertaining. I mean, it wasn't just, there wasn't a moment where I was like, you know, bored or on my phone or trying to, I mean, they did a good job. The pace was good. It wasn't like super fast. It wasn't like drinking from a firehose. I mean, I felt like they, they gave, they gave the information at a good pace. They had supporting, like they brought, like he would talk, he would go, you know, he would go over a bunch of stuff and then he would, you know, segue into a video that, like a YouTube video. And you can go back. I was looking the other day. You can go back and watch there on their YouTube channel. You can watch videos from previous showcases, you know, and see some of the things they did like last year's are up there. And so it's cool to see the prop, the actual installation and the design that they went into. If you go, there's a podcast. I'm going to get this wrong, but it's like Hardscaper. Well, there's one, it's Hardscaper Hustle. I think it's the name of it. And it's a, it's a gentleman that works. I don't know his name. I can't remember. I've listened to it some. He works for Tech O'clock, but he does a podcast. And he had, there's, if you go back and listen, it was last fall, last summer. He had some of the designers that they work with, or the actual products, the backyards that they did for the showcase. And they talked about the challenges that the design of, you know, working with the homeowners. And it was really interesting. I really enjoyed listening to those podcasts, but that that aspect of the showcase I felt like was appreciated the most for me because I've been to so many things over the years, different, you know, presentations or different things. And they're, they all have their own, you know, behind their own field, you know, it's all about really getting the information. But I felt like Tech O'clock did such a good job of keeping it, keeping your attention and keeping you entertained. I don't say entertained, but not, it wasn't just like, they weren't just up there with a PowerPoint presentation going over it. And those are fine. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that. But some of these guys that are out there, some of these companies that are doing stuff and wanting to promote their product and getting information across to their potential contractors or customers, take a look at what Tech O'clock's doing. They've got a format that works. And you can tell by the draw. So, I mean, the last one we went to a few months ago was, what, maybe 15, 20 people in a room? Maybe a little bit more, yeah. This was 300 folks. And it was a production. I mean, I'm so envious of the folks, the guys that work for Tech O'clock, that have to put all that up and bring all that down. They had two 18-wheelers in the parking lot that they're going to load up, and I guess they just did one today in Durham, or Raleigh. So, I mean, they're going all over. Right, so I'm curious. Was that today, or I thought that was yesterday. It was on Friday. Yeah. Oh, okay. Well, very impressed. Very impressed. We'll definitely go back next year on our time out for that. It was good. There was enough information that it was worth my time. I don't like taking a day off of work and doing stuff if it's just like a rah-rah. You know, I can look at your product and tell. For the most part, you know, have your rep call me. That's fine. But it was informative, and I appreciated the fact that they gave us, you know, information on that as it was entertaining. I guess I'll go back to that. All right, guys. I think we're getting right at an hour. Thanks, everybody, for listening. I hope you made it to the end. Please, I'm going to say again, outdoorlivinglounge, outdoorlivinglounge at gmail.com. Please drop us a needle. Send us something. Let us know what you think. If you have questions, we'd love to hear your questions. Give us some topics that you want us to cover. We want to do a little Q&A session, so we'll get folks to send us in a question via e-mail. We'll kind of pull that up and call it our little mailbag section or something, I guess. Next week, we'll talk this week and see what we've got. I know we've been talking to Ryan. We're talking to some folks about maybe coming on and doing some interviews. I don't know if we're ready for that yet. Definitely going to bring that on here before much longer. And have some folks come in and talk to us about some different products. Thanks for joining us. Thanks for downloading the Outdoor Living Lounge.
