most people I would bet in your life were like, are you sure you want to do this? How did

it all come to be, man? Yeah, people thought I was crazy.

In high school, so I started refereeing soccer when I was in the eighth grade.

And I would go to the wrestling matches here in Evansville, Indiana, where I grew up.

And I'm back here now, too.

Been back for a while.

But I would go and just watch the referees, you know, from refereeing soccer.

Go ahead.

But now let's talk about some proposed improvements that are coming to one of the jewels of our area in St. Joe State Park.

Yeah, so it's really an important time for Missouri State Parks right now.

I'm glad I was able to be on because we've got a lot of stuff happening right now.

If we get to the vote in August, we've got these economic impact reports.

But here locally, we've got two separate CDPs happening at the same time, which is kind of a rare thing.

But we've got St. Joe State Park and Missouri Mine State Historic Site.

And there are two separate CDPs, but basically, and this is what we were talking about when I was on here last time, we got everyone's feedback through surveys.

I don't think people realize how much money, how many jobs are a part of this.
