So I think being a younger candidate, never having run for any sort of council or board, or, you know, serving in that capacity, I think it's really brave, and I think that you're you have done a really good job in thinking about the variety of topics that come at us and, and the recognition that we need to make some changes on all fronts, you know, as far as fiscal responsibility and then prioritizing the things that are really important to our rural district. So yeah, I just want to thank you for jumping in.
