You know, we had a a tragic issue yesterday at Skirmirmhorn site.
1:01:42
Where a fight broke out, led to a stabbing on the corner.
1:01:46
I hope that I've been told the person is okay.
1:01:50
We just you know, and for I I assume it was in reaction to that tragedy that some of the operations internally were modified.
1:01:59
But, you know, we had people out in line outdoors for over a block and a half yesterday, until 5 o'clock at night, until the end of the day for 8 hour, you know, 7:8 hours.
1:02:11
And we often have extremely long lines at the summer campsite.
1:02:15
And I reach out to you when it's really hot.
1:02:16
I reach out to you when it's really cold.
1:02:19
I continue to hope that there are operational improvements that you all can identify.
1:02:23
I'd be happy to come on a tour.
1:02:25
I've been inside the site many times, but I haven't it's been probably a decade.
1:02:28
So I'd be happy to to see if there's any ideas we can come up with together to try and provide people with a more customer friendly experience rather than waiting on the street for hours on end.
