I’m in GSO. gonna load up on stuff like socks and blankets etc and bring it back tomorrow. Gonna be in the thirties next week. 

if anyone knows any aid groups that need specific things, especially medical, please dm me and let me know. 

One of the specific things they were mentioning was Benadryl and epi pens. It makes sense. The yellow jackets were PISSED. I thought it was just around my house at first but then everywhere I went there were pissed off yellow jackets everywhere. They've settled down around my house so not sure it's still a big need or not but it was.

Yeah, he is. Stay gone. It's not political. Your toxicity has just reached a level you're no longer welcome.

I've been keeping honeybees for about 30 years- after Floyd dropped about 30 inches on us in 99, several of my hives were attacked and robbed out by yellow jackets.  Even the nasties have to eat and they'd been run out of their holes/nests and food stores.

During the event, Dolly announced she was personally donating $1 million to the Mountain Ways Foundation to assist flood victims. Additionally, her businesses like Dollywood Parks & Resorts, Dolly Parton’s Stampede and Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show also matched her donation and gave another $1 million.

“I look around think, these are my mountains, these are my valleys, these are my rivers flowing like a stream. These are my people,” Parton said. “These mountains-colored rainbows, these are my people and this is my home.”

What are they needing? I could go tomorrow 

The Guard is there hauling tons on tons of dirt.  There is the church off to the left that is digging out of a landslide. Outside of that, not sure what can be done. These boulders I saw weigh way more than us combined.

Yeah, it's beyond bad. Can't imagine what it's like in person. The way some of the roads look, there's no way to repair them. It's like shear drops for long stretches.
