The last time I was in Asheville the big local gripe was that it had become so popular you couldn’t find a parking space. It really was Edenic to me. The whole region will take years to recover, and there are small towns and cities in these hills, valleys and mountains whose beauty is matched by their vulnerability. The extreme is now the everyday, as you well know where you live.

Thank you, Wayne. Over the years I've experienced two basement floods where I lost a lot of "stuff" but the thought of losing entire communities is beyond staggering.

Yeah, Gay, I lost some cool records years ago to basement floods. Poor me! I feel like I want to build a rocketship for my grandson and do the Clark Kent origin story and send him to Krypton! 🤔

Thank you, Wayne. There are so many, many areas that will never recover. It’s heart wrenching.
