There's tons of stuff in there, and especially we should say right off the top,

if you have not seen or heard it on the news a special

aloha to our hoa our friends in hawaii who are enduring catastrophic flooding from a second

kona low that's why the pineapple express has gone away from us because it's retreated back

unfortunately where it comes from we are thinking of you haliiva up on the north shore of Oahu, where the surfers, the little, cute little historic surfing town is being washed away, unfortunately, as we speak, and they're still recovering from flooding at the north end of Kihei on Maui and other one. I put a couple pictures at the very bottom of the show notes there. That's

kind of devastating. It is. Yeah. I mean, thousands of people evacuated. I had some clients,

tutoring clients that went there for vacation, got there the day before this all started,

I guess what, 10 days ago. And on day two, they said, nope. So they they booked the flight used their points and went to

Auckland New Zealand and I believe as we speak now we're in the Bay of Islands on the

North Island New Zealand Catherine they just said you know we shouldn't be here this is not

fair to the people there to be trying to support us when even Caliacaa Avenue and

Vikiki was flooded I I have friends as well.

They were in the middle of their Hawaiian vacation and they decided to come home early because

the waves were starting to get a little bit scary.

Yeah.
