And if it's downpouring, you know, I don't know if there's a sheriff sitting there or State Patrol sitting there by the tree, but, you know, if it's downpour and just keep your lights on and sit by it, I don't expect you to go out in this torrential downpour. Just look for a window or whatever. 10-4 and the stop sign at the 9-23 intersection by a country stop is down. Okay, well, we'll probably have to run and travel portable for that, then. Sanport. We have made contact with. 10-4. Loop and Lakeview Campground is blocked on both ends. If we get somebody help to their cell, we got a camper trying to get out of here. 10-4. So there's just a tree down on the road that's blocking the road. Is that correct? That's correct. There's actually two trees, so I just need one of them cleared from one of the sides. 10-4. We'll try and get somebody up there. Have you had a chance to reach your park management yet to see if they have somebody that can come in? I am the park manager, and I can't get that out there yet. They're here with a... skid and some chainsaws, so they'll get it quicker than I can. Okay, I'm fine. It looks like the stoplights are working in at First and Homer and Candy. Could you contact public works to have them come and now remove the stop signs? People are just confused now with the lights working on the stop times as they were before. He's had Wilmer Avenue and Candy. First and Wilmer is working, and first in candy is also working. Okay, thank you. If you're able to get hold of them, Fibley is requesting his assistance up at Lakeview Campground with a tree that's blocking the road.
