That's right.
You?
Sure.
I thought I'd go with Bob.
Is he going back to the island?
Yeah.
He's going to Hagerstown.
Where is your helicopter?
Well, I mean, where is he?
He would drive to Hagerstown.
His plane.
Well, I'll tell you what we'll do.
Listen, I'll take you in my helicopter, drop you in the air, drop you on Washington.
Okay, sure.
Fine.
We'll leave at 10, 15.

Oh, he's coming.
Oh, good.
Why?
He had a week or two off.

And then we go over there.
That's not correct.
No, I'm sorry.
Thursday night.

And I'm going to fly down.
I would hope I can get away.
And then we have dinner Thursday night.
And I can just fly down that night.
I see what you mean.
And so I'll go directly to Grand Keto.
Is that all right?
You can get over there.
So you will go over there Thursday night?
Right.

I'll stay.
We're going to stay Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
All right.
This is not really quite a party, I'll tell you that.
It's never been, those gifts were the funniest I've ever seen.
The things that Bob got, that Julie got, got, and a good dinner.
It was certainly great, that was too much.
You know, what I've got, I've got two fives.
