Remembering a year ago

 And I take a moment to honor the loss of life and property in western North Carolina (and nearby states) from Hurricane Helene on this date last year.

Before&after Walking Bridge in Spruce Pine Before and During Hurricane Helene.

Before&after  Hwy 221 in North Cove

Chimney Rock before and after Helene 9.27.24

Black Mountain on Blue Ridge Rd next to where the Swannanoa River used to have a bridge

Looking south on US 74 from the I-40 bridge, with the  Blue Ridge Parkway bridge in the distance...before and during storm.

A special remembrance for all those who worked to help others during this time. Much gratitude to you all!
