October 2024
on September 27th, Hurricane Helen hit the mountains of western North Carolina and where we live in the Swannanoa Valley and surrounding Asheville area pretty bad. after 2 initial weeks staying with my folks in Mississippi, we got home on 10/12. our house was decently flooded (all exterior). we're staying at our friend Amy's for 2 weeks, then staying at our friend Paul's family's house in Montreat for at least a month after. fingers crossed, we're back in our house by the time baby #3 arrives mid-December! I wrote up my recollection of the day of, and day after, the hurricane here on my blog.
