Sherry - thank you so much for keeping us apprised of Bob.
How do we send him a letter - address or email?
My friend of 45 years has lived on St. Simons Island for 50 years and was at his NC cabin for Helene - he had to go to the mountains to experience the worse hurricane impacts he has experienced and he lives on a Barrier Island - what irony. Yes - Climate Change is real.
Powerful glimpse of the aftermath. The devastation detailed. People swept away. No running water until Thanksgiving? This should be widely shared so people outside understand from a human standpoint. And yes, people who have the ability need to press about their right to vote.
I didn't realize I was holding my breath until I let it out at the last sentence! Sounds like fiction but, alas, it's fact. Such horror stories. As macabre as it is, I want to read more. The stranger weeping in your arms says it all. Love to you and Bella. Give thanks Ginny from all who love you.
Bob, we miss your RAW talks here in Jax. Thank you for taking the time to write to us. So many in Jax have close ties or annual visits to Western NC and know the area well. Seeing the unexpected impact of the hurricane has been awful, but reading your first person account brings it home deeper. We now see another storm's impact across the state, and it's just a matter of time until Jax gets hit again. May we learn the lessons - environmental resilience wise and human resilience wise - to become a more caring less divisive community.
Bob, you are a poet, in both darkness and light. You are a hero to many people, but we forget to tell you.
You are.
Thank you.

Way to capture some glints of goodness. Keep writing these.

I'm glad you are surviving and being a force for good. Thank you for the report.
