And then we've got some things to do in conservation that is really, really, really important. And I'm not just talking about one thing, wilderness or recreation, I'm talking about all the above. Making sure that we're harvesting trees, making sure that we're putting land aside for our kids for future generations and making sure that people can recreate on our public lands and keep those public lands in public hands.
