And I've been back and forth there a lot.

I don't know what the deal is, but we seem to be going up there about every other month.

And I made a declaration yesterday, Jason.

Of course, you kind of know your audience.

And every time I mention something about, you know, rednecks in Illinois.

And I mean, there's a lot of hooping and hollering because these are these are farmers and hunters.

And I mean, this church was like full of camo.

In fact, they gave us camo gifts that like has the name of the church on the on the jacket.

And I don't think I've ever got like really nice camo as a gift with the church's name on it.

And the church is called the Pasture.

And it's literally, it's literally in a giant pasture.

I mean, I was just driving through this farmland and all of a sudden it just kind of rises up out of the, out of the pasture.

And the story was that this church back during COVID, uh, this pastor who's there and has been there six years, uh, you know, they just, they were so locked down cause it's Illinois, you know, they're, they're run by, uh, everybody in Chicago and Springfield.

And so,

These people are just like us.

You know, they're just hunters, good old folks, believers.

Well, they couldn't meet, you know, so they got it.

So somebody had the idea, let's just meet out in this pasture.

And so I think the first Sunday they had about 20 that braved it and came out there.

And six years later, they got about a thousand people out.
