Because the easement on this part was, and this was a part of it, because there's a shared driveway and that goes to the house. And what we've, what you have put in place with the survey is a shared access off of Benzie Highway and then it splits from there. And that's another interesting point too.
I had to also get approval from MDOT. There was another application I had to complete as well because it wasn't a highway. So any property, which is going to be virtually every property that's on a road, is going to need some kind of approval from that.
And that was probably a significant cost savings, um, given the topography there, but
