      Indeed. You really don’t know how devastated the communities are until you actually go into them.

      Thanks, Mary Ellen. I've seen hurricane damage in coastal regions, but this was jaw-dropping to see it in the mountains.

    My brother lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, and he was spared, but some of his friends were not. Blessings to everybody, and I hope they're all safe.

      @@TheWorldAccordingtoJim Thank you, Jim! We are in the Charlotte area as well, and we were spared from hardly any damage. Life is carrying on as normal for us, but there are so many in the mountains who will be struggling for months.

      The region is going to be in rebuild mode for at least 1-2 years. The damage is so extensive.

    Old fort will bounce back in no time. I personally know many people in this town. The worse hit areas were really just downtown. Old fort just needs to dig that area of the river deeper when its low with higher walls. Similar to Gatlinburg's style.
