And it was a very nice package, insurance, health insurance for a very long period of time afterwards, you still got a pension, you got all your sick time, all your vacation time that you’d accrued. And, and I looked at it and my daughter at the time was going into first grade and I looked at the school situation down there and, you know, Florida’s not well known for its education program. And I said, you know, it’s probably time to get out of this area. I, I want my daughter to grow up like I did. I want her to have the opportunity to get out in nature and be out in the country. So I took the buyout, a a few of us did at the zoo, and at first I went, I don’t wanna get out of the business. So I started a company and started doing design programs and stuff because a few of the companies we worked with to build Metro Zoo, I’d gotten to know quite well. Pat McBride was a company in Miami that did some of, he helped me do the Komodo exhibit that I did before I left the zoo.
