Kk6vzd mobile w e6a x m repeater. Hey, chris. Thanks. Too much. I can do. Good evening. Good evening. You know, I might as well not have come to work today. Hey, a little bit late. Yeah, you know, we had Wednesday off. Eve Christmas or New Year's Eve and New Year's, so I had to come back to work today, but it's almost like there was nobody else here in the county. Wow. Spaceship came down and they all died. Well, that's good, but what do you got going for this evening? You're going to have a nice dinner and take your shoes off and. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. Dinner? That's a good question. Although I went out to Panda Express for lunch, so I don't know that I need anything else to eat. A bowl of frosted flakes and a banana. Well, frosted implies lots of sugar and that I don't need that. Especially, you know, for my diabetes, since I had a whole bunch of chow mein noodles for lunch. Chow mein noodles weren't the best thing for me to eat either, so. Yeah. I can't even tell you the last time I had, you know, box material. Wow. Maybe when you were a kid. Well, are you insulin diabetic? I'm insulin resistant, so. So, yes. I, you know, adult onset and I have to take insulin, but it's. It's not like the type one where you have to monitor it all day throughout the day. I get patients at night. Oh. Diabetes runs in my family. You know, both sides. Grandparents all died of diabetic complications. But, you know, some things, when I get depressed, I want Ben and Jerry or Haagen Dazs or, you know, I mean, I must have a death wish. I know, I know. You know, my. My grandfather had adult onset diabetes and he passed away when he was 91. And my mother has adult onset diabetes and she's 93. Oh, my God. Well, I've heard, you know, now they're saying, you know, some people just live with higher numbers and, you know, the A1, C and D doesn't seem to bother other people. They should watch. Especially the ones who drink a lot. Yeah, Well, I guess just because I should be watching it a lot closer. I'm not, but I should be. Well, do you ever think about, like, laying in bed at night, think about chocolate cat cake or pie or something that you shouldn't think about at all? Yeah, I think I'll try and not run over this cat. That's what I need to think about right now, You know, I just kind of like. I don't know when my time is up. My time will be up. I know when it's not up, it's not up. So why worry really? You know, there's no secret to learning a how live or anything like that. It's like you have to deal with so many things. I feel kind of sorry for young people coming out into the world, you know, there's just so much going on that you could worry about. Yeah, very true, very true. I guess this is kind of a weird thing to say. I guess I'm glad that I'll be leaving sooner rather than later. Oh, yeah. Are you having a party or is it going to be see you later? As for my retirement, I'm not gonna have a party. You know, they're gonna want to have some sort of get together. Oh, Chris is retiring. Let's have a get together. No, I don't want to get together. I will get together with the people that I want to get together with. Well, do you have a lot of friends? Horses and one or two. Maybe you'd be better off to go to the pizza parlor or something. It's more like one or two. No, I don't have an awful lot of friends. I don't have an awful lot of good acquaintances at work anymore either, because they've all left. Well, that kind of tells you something, you know, I mean, actually, are you counting down the days? We just say it was like four months and something. As of 5 o' clock today, it is now 87 days until my retirement. 87, like work days? Not even include, not including weekends. And time that you get. What do you call it, when they pay you, when you leave? What's the word? Oh, that's 87 calendar days. Yeah, 87. Hey, you know what? Don't go by fast, but yeah, retirement, you're gonna like it. You know, it's the time when you find out there's. There's so much to do. You know, things break, things go wrong. I mean, really. Yeah, so many other things to do besides work. Yeah, I got a taste of that last. Last week when I was off for, for the week. I, when I came back to work, I, I came back and I said, you know what? I didn't, I didn't mind not coming into work all last week. We didn't miss it at all. Well, you know, I've mentioned this before. My, my family kind of believed in this Horatio Alger work ethic over the 1930s and 40s, you know, you you were obligated to get an 8 to 5 job and get out there and be part of the society. Oh my God. Oh my God. Well, that's all well and good. You have responsibilities, but there's also an end to it and I get the end. I retired early, had that golden handshake. I said goodbye. Hello. Goodbye. Yes, yes, yes. Well. Well, I've just pulled into my driveway and I see my wife has put out the recycling or coder, not the recycling coater, the green coater and it's not yet Tuesday so I'm going to pull it back up in the driveway, go check it W e I kicked my shoes off and, and come to the, the balloon, you know, come to actually believe the fact that it's Friday, not Monday. So have a great weekend and I'll Talk you later. KK6BZD Clear. KK6BCD N6I W H yes, I'm clear also.

Speaker A: Wp set a x n repeater. Kilo Oscar 6 Bravo Gulf Yankee monitoring mobile headed to Yuba City. Looks like there's a break in the storm.
Speaker B: Hey, Paul, you've got the old IWA shot here.
Speaker A: Say again N6IWH, KO6BBY.
Speaker B: Yeah, just checking in. No traffic. Okay.
Speaker A: Y' all be monitoring in the background once they get out of Calusa. Probably a little bit smoother. There's quite a bit of traffic at the moment. Happy Saturday. Peace. Yeah, it looks like we got some rain definitely through last night and it looks like we're due for quite a bit. Probably by 10 or 11, I think.
Speaker B: Oh yeah, it's real bad up here. Coming down pretty good. Got my Bronco covered up with tarp. Of course the wind blew it off. Right. So here I am, six o' clock in the morning trying to cover up my Bronco will be.
Speaker A: You need to find a tarp and a large heat gun and shrink wrap that thing. That might help, huh?
Speaker B: Yeah, I know. Well, you can't let it go. That stuff can. Can develop mold, you know, the bad kind of mold for the. So anyway, everything requires some kind of maintenance really.
Speaker A: It's always something. But. Yeah. Oh, the river's up high. Sack river in Calusa over here is up high. Yeah, that's pretty. That's pretty well up there.
Speaker B: Oh, hey, I come from Bridge street, you know, city, Marysville. I've never seen so much water in my entire life. I mean, everything was underwater, that soccer area and all those fields. But that river was about a mile wide. I couldn't believe it. I was really. I was on the world.
Speaker A: Yeah, I can remember as a youngin. Still young. Anyway, I think it was back in 97 or 98, we'd have to go to Yuba City and the road would be flooded out. The Sutter Bypass back then was the old bridge with the old wooden guardrails and the water was lapping over the bridge there. But. But looks like we got some traffic stopped in the road, so I'm going to back out for just a second beat. Disregard. If it's somebody that thinks you have to come to a complete stop to make a right turn off of a main road. I don't understand why people do that.
Speaker B: Hey, it's tough enough driving in bad weather when you got people making these decisions trying to drive. Oh my God.
Speaker A: Hey, how's my signal coming through? I'm getting a little bit of static on your end, but that could be just me driving around in this crap of weather.
Speaker B: Now your new middle name is Good Signal. It sounds fine. Good audio. Really?
Speaker A: That's surprising. This car has a lot of road noise in it. Pretty pleased with this $20 aftermarket hand mic that I got last year. Oh, then first world problem. My Internet went out yesterday after I got home from work and called the company. We can send somebody on Wednesday. I'm like, oh, geez. Good thing I have an old time radio I can fire up and sit by the pretend fireplace on my iPad. Do that. But I got myself on. I actually read a book a little bit last night, so that was kind of fun.
Speaker B: It was, you know, 30, something like that. And I just can't get it. The chirp I have doesn't work. Windows 10. Maybe that's it. I don't know. But I told you about that place in the wall. It's almost beaten in from my head. Oh, I mean, really, I can't.
Speaker A: Yeah, I was getting a little bit ecstatic. Kind of hard to copy. But anyway, I will back out. I'm gonna prioritize as always. Safety first. But I will be monitoring in the background and I'll let you know if I see any knuckleheads. Tell them not to go towards Chico. They Pete alone. Anyway, Pete, Happy Saturday. And I'll be. I'll be here listening in the background. N6IWh, KO6, BGY73 and the little. By the way, the bypass over here in the Sutter starting to get us get full. Nowhere near full, but it's got water in it.
Speaker B: Hey, well, be careful. Watch out for idiots. Hello? It.

Speaker A: N6iwhko, 6bgy.n6iwh ko, 6bgy. And 6iwa W. All right, I'm stationary. I'm sitting outside the Great clip waiting for my turn to go in and get my ears lowered. What are you. What are you up to?
Speaker B: Working on model M O T E L S Model? Actually, I'm a model maker.
Speaker A: I build
Speaker B: a diorama for people who can't really afford the whole train set. You build these little tiny. You know, get a piece of board. I'm working on my military diorama. I've got three half tracks, a couple of tanks, and HO size.
Speaker A: Okay, I remember you talking about that. It's good. You still working on that? And hopefully that's coming along pretty well. Looks like the weather's parted ways for a minute. Oh, well, my main appointment was done, so we'll see how the rest of the day goes. Yep. Doing with this, that, and the other little bits and bats over here. There. But anyway, probably should get something to eat, too. There's a Costa Vita nearby. They're okay. I can't draw the blank now, but it's popular. Similar food, but it'll come to me as soon as I drop.
Speaker B: What kind of stuff? Cheeseburger.
Speaker A: That's a fresh Mexican grill. I swear, the name is escaping me here, but it's another one that's real popular with their guacamole. And I swear I'm getting old. Memory isn't what it used to be. But, yeah, they got good food at Costa Vida, so it's not too bad. And it's right here.
Speaker B: Yeah, there's a few. Chico. I judge a restaurant by the rice and beans. You know, they have to pass my scrutiny there. But you know, what they're doing, though, when you order a burrito is they're filling it full of rice. And you say chicken, and there might be a beak or something in there.
Speaker A: Yeah, it's kind of hard to judge. When they say it's chicken, it's like, are you serving chicken or are you serving duck? Bills and beaks and feathers and stuff. But for whatever it is, it tastes good. So if they have something on there. Yeah,
Speaker B: I've had some good experiences with Mexican restaurants, but not so much lately. And then also, you know, Christmas for those old Chicanos and stuff. These restaurants don't sell tamales. Okay. And, you know, the guys I talk to, they say, oh, go over here to so and so. There's a woman selling them out of the trunk of her car. I Don't know how I feel about that.
Speaker A: Well, as a tamale connoisseur,
Speaker B: don't pass
Speaker A: up on those ones coming out of the trunk. Usually. Usually at least the ones when I do that, it's through a lady at work that knows someone and they do it that way. So I guess it's not the same as just a total random stranger. But yeah, you're right. Most of these restaurants don't do tamales. And if they do.
Speaker B: Oh, that's.
Speaker A: There's one in Marysville that a friend of mine really liked. We went over there and they were frozen tamales. You could tell because they had that really cheap square chicken bits in it. It's like.
Speaker B: No. Oh yeah. Well, you recognize the real thing. Even Chinese food Marysville is that Sun Bridge used to be good quality. You know, the rice. Fluffy and I would get sweet and sour chicken. But I noticed last time that they were starting to fry up pieces of gristle and skin and call it chicken. I guess the economy is tough.
Speaker A: Yeah, it gets pretty bad there when the quality goes down. But anyway, I'm gonna go ahead and step in. It looks like I just got notified that I'm next in line, so I'm gonna be about 10 pounds lighter with getting some mop off my head, people.
Speaker B: Catch you in a little bit.
Speaker A: N6iwa K O6BGY in rather wet Yuba City.
Speaker B: Roger UVC Ida. I'll catch you later.
