Yeah.
Did he want to come in?
Yes, sir.
Fine.
Yes, sir.
You are...
You're in Lauderdale, huh?
Yes, I'm down visiting friends.
Good, good.
You've just turned this entire household upside down.
I'm sure you understand that.
Yeah.
Incidentally, I happen to be going to Florida this afternoon myself for a couple days.
I go to Key Biscayne, but really enjoy it.
Is the weather good?
It's pouring right now, Mr. President, but it'll be...
It'll stop.
I'm sure by the time you get down here, we'll have it cleared up.
It's not a northeaster.
No, sir.
It's just a very heavy rain, and it's...
Right.
But after the campaign, we were very glad to get down and see our friends.
Well, I certainly am glad to see you win.
And we, John Ehrlichman of our domestic council, is going to meet with all the county executives from New York in the next couple of weeks, I understand.
And we try to help all we can.
Well, thank you very much.
And again, I'm deeply honored that you would call.
Now get out on that beach as soon as it quits raining.
I promise I'll do just that.
Give my best to your family.
Thank you.
