Hello everyone,

I live close to the French Broad river which created some 20 feet above normal. The damage is significant in the area. In a way, I'm glad I was here taking care of things instead of in Arizona at the conference. My sweetheart Elizabeth was in Georgia for the weekend. She only got a little rain where she was. She came home the Monday after to the aftermath.

A tree clipped my house and smashed the heat-pump. Elizabeth's house is fine and she has running water with a boil advisory. When I left this morning, she still doesn't have power.

Cellular services are spotty in the area, the roads are clear. Most people have electricity again. It might be another 2 weeks before water is fully restored in the area.

The office has power and internet and I'm finally able to really be online again. There are buckets of potable and non-potable water here for our needs.

Give thanks to the beneficial weather we get, even 20 inches in 12 hours of rain has benefits. Give thanks to those that provide food for the masses.

Stay safe everyone! Tracy

Hey Tracy,

I'm glad to hear from you - and that you're doing OK! I was in the hot tub a few nights ago, with several other older women - and they were all speaking about the Devastation caused by the last Hurricane - I heard an entire small town had been totally wiped off a hillside in the Carolinas. My heart goes out to all those who have been heavily affected, and sad to hear that many people have lost their lives in that Hurricane.

And, now another is tearing thru Florida. They say it may be the worst hurricane in a century. What's worse, for my family - is that my Mom is down there. She lives in a retirement community - and they were forced to evacuate. My mom is now at a hotel - but, even though she is more Inland now - she is still only about 6 blocks from the ocean. So, yeah - that has me worried as well!

But, yeah - glad to hear you're safe Tracy!

Regards, Kurt
