They see either 104 or 101. Go ahead, babe. We took a report from Westcom. A few of highway helper could head to the exit ramp from 8035 eastbound to Hickman. They're saying there's a dead cat on the ramp. Seeing if it could be moved closer to the shoulder, I'm going to see if you can see it on camera at least. There's an orange tabby on the shoulder. I know, I've seen that one before. If you're saying it's on the shoulder, that's fine. I think they would, I think they thought it was in the roadway. Dead boy. I actually met the last couple passes. When I get over there, I'll look again, but I'm pretty sure it's on the shoulder. That's one. It's a big orange tabby.
