Jim'sKid26 ok down in Ashville

[Tony-OH]

In case you were wondering where Ashville resident and Hangouter @Jim'sKid26 has been, he's safe. I know I'll say a little prayer for him and all of the people who've been affected by this incredible disaster.

Glad to hear he's safe.  He's a good poster.

Hard to believe some of these pictures & videos. 

Insanity.. the tolls from this thing are going to be ugly.

My daughter and son-in-law live in Weaverville, which requires you to pretty much go through Asheville to get to...their area is in bad shape as well.

I know that our poster@George Zuverink also lives in Asheville.  Per his profile, he last visited OH last Friday afternoon.  Hopefully he is okay too.   I’ve spent a good bit of time in Asheville and points west of there.  It’s such a beautiful part of the country and the people are wonderful.   They are all in my prayers.

If he was a bad poster, would you wish him harm?

I probably wouldn't have said anything.  J/K

Sucks to see bad things happen to good people though.  The videos coming out of Western NC are pretty scary.

Hopefully he will check in as well. Just a terrible situation out there in such a beautiful part of the country.

My brother does a lot of business in Asheville. He always comments that it’s one of the most beautiful towns he has ever been to.

Never been there personally but I know it’s a favorite of many.

Asheville is such a beautiful area.  I was just there 2 months ago working at the Asheville hospital.  Hospital decided not to renew my contract which upset me at the time, but was obviously a blessing in disguise.  I understand large stretches of I-26 and 40 are gone (the main interstate highways into town).  Sounds like it will be years before life is back to normal there.

This is their Katrina. All of Appalachia is in my prayers.
