Recovery is exciting. Recovery is a new day, every day. I just come back from being down in a place called Glen Innes, which is such a beautiful. I camp on a river. I'm in a swag. My nephew is 54, 54 years of age. Yeah, right, nice. Yeah. My nephew's now four years sober. Yep. Didn't make him, but yeah, he detoxed, and he's been clean for four years now. And, you know, we're there and we're surrounded by these incredible granite mountains. And we're deer hunting and we only hunt for food. And, you know, we hunt with bow and arrow, which makes it a lot more fun.
