Hurricane Helene




Good morning folks!

I'm trying to post this from my phone as we are currently out of power and the generator hasn't kicked in. The heating and air company is in the process of sending folks all the way out from Blacksburg to get us up and running. This storm is a doozy! And we are just in the outer bands of it here in Southwestern virginia.

We just got notification that The Retreat House is also out of power, but hopefully their generator kicked in!

Grassy Creek Road is closed due to large downed trees across the road.

We are going to try to venture up and over in the opposite direction taking the long way around to go check on the retreat people.

And we are not even in the direct path! So to those who are - please stay safe. This is not a joke or a mere suggestion.

Here where we are the winds are absolutely crazy and we have had nearly 10 inches of rain since this event started.

Even though this has been downgraded from Hurricane to Tropical storm, don't let it fool you.

Thoughts, prayers, and all good Juju for those affected are welcome.

Love you all - stay safe.

Bonnie
