I know it's said earlier, people like to complain, but they have done a fantastic job. And, you know, Saturday night and Sunday, they responded not only are they trying to plow the roads, but, you know, they would have to divert and they went and I don't know if three or four different ambulances that were stuck, fire trucks, my two police. I mean, they would go and they helped get those emergency responders where they needed to go. So really went above and beyond. And then lastly, a shout out to really the citizens because overall, they actually, I think, our public did a very good job of heating the warnings and listening and weren't necessarily, or unnecessarily out and about doing things. I actually think that we only had five crashes that actually required crash reports. And then we had a handful of slide-offs and then just vehicles stuck in the middle of the roads and couldn't get anywhere that we responded to. But overall, nothing major whatsoever. So, anyway, lots of good work all the way around, I thought so. I wanted to take a moment for that. And then just the last thing I just wanted to throw this out there, I know you guys can't decide or anything right now, but just wondering what the plan is as far as my county highway workers and then the dispatch and jail officers and road officers who didn't get to take the day off yesterday when the county employees were. If there's any thought of compensating them with the extra day off or paid kind of like a holiday or something, so I'm just throwing that out there for you guys to talk about, because unlike all the other departments, our department and the highway department don't get to shit down. So, just throwing that out there to see what we can do there. So, other than that, it's all good, unless you all have anything for me. Thank you all very much for your hard work. You've done a good job and all the county services have went above and beyond, and we're very pleased and having for you all to do that. Thank you again very much. All right, thanks a lot. Thanks.
