Looks to me like a Haitian buffet.

Here's a longer follow-up. The husband was eventually rescued after hiking down the mountain.

Knoxville TVA Credit Union has teamed up with Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee to accept donations and double them up to $25,000. This gives you much more bang for your flood victim charity buck. https://www.tvacreditunion.com/community.html

Hey, @SierraTangoKilo We're glad you made your existence known. Welcome to absolute best Tennessee Gun Owner's forum in the state!

This tune points to a different tragedy in a different time and place, but it certainly captures the tone of how some people feel in Helene's aftermath. I've been humming it for the last few days so I thought I'd share it with no offense in mind.

That Bersa Thunder you sold me is a favorite carry, @tacops. Together with the Bersa 9mm Ultra Compact, they are super dependable, and I'll probably never sell them even if I could get more than a few hundred for the pair.

We'll keep a light on for ya!

Sending prayers up for you and yours, Jeb!

Looks like some relief is in sight. HAMBLEN COUNTY, Tenn. (WATE) – The Nolichucky Dam has remained intact, and the river feeding it has begun to recede. Around 9:50 a.m. Saturday, the Tennessee Valley Authority shared that the Nolichucky River had crested and the Nolichucky Dam remained intact. According to the TVA, the water is receding at a rate of approximately one foot per hour. Dam Safety teams are assessing the condition of the dam to determine what the next steps should be. Evacuations ordered along Nolichucky River due to 'imminent failure of the Nolichucky Dam' (wate.com)

Yep, Hell-ene only blew the trees and loose debris around for a couple of hours. We're counting our blessings. Yet, it's not over for a lot of folks out yonder.

I still have a soft spot in my heart for memories of pets I lost when I was a kid. Only the grace of God makes it bearable. Prayers for you and yours @TripleGGG
