Past guests and friends, Asheville is devastated since Hurricane Helene came through... the destruction is unfathomable. Besides the terrible flooding that swept away roads, bridges, and entire communities, trees across the region were uprooted from saturated soil by strong winds. This has caused power and internet outages, and many people in the region are without water or enough food.
Fortunately our whole house generator has been working, with a few more days until the propane runs out. The trees in our yard can wait... they aren't going anywhere! While the generator works we have water from our well. The pool is full of leaves and limbs, but otherwise okay. We'll be replacing the liner next spring anyway.
So we're fine for now... thank you all for your concern and best wishes. If you're able to donate to recovery organizations helping western NC, that would be greatly appreciated. Hope to see you again during better days!
