Are you getting deals like this? A place to store all the crap. Go out in your garage right now and take a look and see if you got— if you got place to store stuff or you park your car in it. But I guarantee all 1,500 doors over there have nowhere to put their stuff. And here we are on 5.5 acres heading all the way that way. Like, we're going to walk that way, but right here we're right next to the highway. We're not even all the way across the property. We're— we still got 1,000 feet to go to get to the other side of the property, but there's tenants over there. There's a road right here that comes into it, but can you imagine if this thing was full of 1,500 shipping containers? So those people had a garage to put their stuff in. How much would that be? Can anybody give me a guess at what a storage unit, 400, a 40-foot shipping container runs a month?
