Pray for the panhandle, S GA

[GTJackets]

My in-laws from eastern TN have been at my house in eastern SC since last Wednesday. They came to visit for some things our kids had going on around the weekend. Then they couldn't get home. House is still standing, but they still have no water. My sister-in-law, their other daughter, lives just outside Asheville. They finally got the power back on yesterday but still have no water. The national guard was called in to help with the clean-up efforts. We were on the facetime with her yesterday and you could see the divers pulling bodies out of the river behind her. It's like something out of a horror movie over there.

We finally got electricity back tonight! I'm trying to convince my wife to come to the game this weekend. It'd be nice to get up to ATL to get away from the Augusta area for a little bit. We've got a lot of work ahead of us to get things out back together.

@Augusta_Jacket @AugustaSwarm @augustabuzz @Tommy_Taylor_1972 and all of our South Georgia brethren and others in the path of the storm, hope you are all doing okay and had minor or no damage..

Valdosta finally checking in here. I can echo @Augusta_Jacket's and @AugustaSwarm's war zone analogy. Many places were impassable for days due to downed trees and power lines everywhere. We are currently still without power at my house, just running a few items off a generator. No water due to being on a well, but thankfully no major damage to the house. Carport collapsed, but neither mine nor my wife's vehicle were underneath at the time. Predictions are floating around that we may get power back sometime this weekend, but we will see. It's going to take a long time for this area to recover from Helene.
