Yeah. Well, it's interesting because people ask me if I'm from Montana and Uh, I am fifth generation Montanan, but I'm not really, cause I was born in Colorado Springs. You're not a Montana at all. Right. My parents immigrated to Canada two days after I was born. And then they, they, it was 81 when the interest rates were insane. They, they couldn't afford to make it up there.

My grandpa lived up there running a ranch. Uh, and so they moved back down to Montana cause my mom was born in Bozeman. Um, so I've lived here since I was six months old, but doesn't cut it. I'm an out of stater. Yeah. I'm a piece of shit too. To some people. Yeah. You are the enemy. And the thing is with, with Montana, like, sure.

If I could have waved a magic wand in 1985 and just said, no, well, no one else coming in and we all get to split up the ground that's left. Like, Okay. I guess if you're King, you wanted to just keep Montana to yourself like that, I guess would have been fun, but it's not the reality of life.

And, you know, we we've actually been dealing with this, even with our new building that we're building, um, We're helping finance a water line that's actually going to eventually serve... We're basically helping bring city water to this section of Missoula where they want more development. The county does. The county's been working with us.

So we're building this water line that's going to serve a commercial subdivision and then eventually a subdivision for homes. That makes sense. We're helping build that. And then the county's going to buy it from us when we're done. And it's just a public... private partnership deal. And we're essentially helping push along what we need quicker, but it's going to be a benefit to that area.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But people are complaining about these subdivisions. But then in the very next breath, people complain about the housing prices, right? So my daughters, two of them have just graduated in the last three years from Frenchtown. And I look at them, one wants to be a school teacher, the other one's trying to become a veterinarian. How are they ever going to afford to buy a house here?
