I'm about seeing (number withheld) on our Kansas. I'll go ahead and take command. We're going to head east, get over Broadway, and take (number withheld) to Broadway to Broadway and come back around. Cap, we drove from (number withheld) and Broadway, north to (number withheld), and every block in between all the way over to Waco previously. Just a heads up.
