Blue Ridge Rd bridge over the Swannanoa River is built, but not yet open as of Mon. 11.4.24. Then I went to Asheville... (Later I took more photos of Swannanoa, when I was actually looking for a free lunch, but never spotted one.)
Mon, Wed, and Fri I am going to be doing what these people are doing...for my pulmonary rehab maintenance exercise. I started this week.
A gingko tree on a cloudy day in Asheville, last Mon.
Driving through the worst hit area, Biltmore Village. Much has already been cleaned up, but the repairs continue.
McDonalds has huge piles of debris at the entrance to it's parking lot (over to the left which I didn't catch as I drove by.)
Was this the Wendy's where I went often for lunch following doctor's appointments in Asheville?
Hwy 81 runs parallel to the Swannanoa River, which flooded at 26.5 feet. (I think that's still below the roof line of these buildings, so they must count starting at the bottom of the river.)
Today's quote:
[Film and theater critic John] Simon has simply discovered the trick used with great effectiveness by certain comedians, talk show hosts and punk rock musicians: people of modest talent can attract attention, at least for a while, by being unrelentingly offensive.
-Steven Pinker, author and psychology professor (b. 18 Sep 1954)
