I am still Here! Not a lot of problem from Helene except a big branch fell in front yard and snagged the street light cable. Sorry I have been away so much. Trouble dealing with multiple minor issues!😀
and fwiw the aircon conked out before the storm and the fence needs replacing. $20k worth of fun!

Lost power for 3 days here in North East GA. Worst casualty was everything in our freezer.

Lesson learned. Investing in installing a transfer switch and a generator in the next couple of weeks.

Good to hear you are both OK, apart from a little disruption.

I have been thinking about Mr P. I hope him and his family are OK. 🤞🏻

Good to hear that you're safe and well CS and RICH.
A friend of mine lived in Lake Lure, NC but moved during COVID. Thank goodness she did, Lake Lure has been wiped out.
Hope Pulaski is okay.

Mr P was last active 09/30, well after Helene, so I am sure he is just fine. Will be glad to hear from you though R!

Hi everyone! :wave:

Well spotted, CS, I did indeed drop in last Sunday to let everyone know that we're all OK, but there was no storm/ hurricane thread, so I figured nobody cared. :cry_smile:

We had some water (moving) flood our back yard on Friday morning, but it was pretty mild, and gone in a few hours. We've had worse most years since we moved here in 2002, often two or three times.

We lost the small top off a large tree (12"-15" trunk). Later I found it lying on the ground. :rofl: .... It took about 20 minutes to cut up with a hand saw. :)

Power went out on Saturday night, which was long after the storm had passed. We weren't at home, and power was back by morning.

So, thank you everyone for asking, but thankfully we're all fine, with no harm to body, spirit, or property; well, apart from one tree.
