  1. Yes I have several family and a bunch of friends. All are safe. I'm told the pictures don't show the true destruction.
  2. I'm told Hot Springs, NC is even worse. The words used are the entire town is unsalvagable. It's a few miles downriver from Marshall.
  3. These are pictures of my home town. 4 to 6 feet of water down main street. The bridge you see partly under water crossing the river connects to an island in the middle of the river that is underwater. I went to elementary school on that island.
  4. Here's drone footage of Erwin, TN. My brother talked to his son-in-law who lives in area we grew up. He is a lineman for Duke Power. Said would be months before power was back to some places in Western NC. All roads are barricaded. https://youtu.be/_FVvRe0JNqo?si=HAPLwlwgUxldv10b
  5. NC DOT just reported over 300 highways/roads in WNC are completely impassable due to washed out or slides this is not counting ones covered in trees that will have to be cleared before they can check for damage. I have family and friends in full panic mode. One friend and his family crawled up a bank and watched their house wash away. Neighbors rescued them. Said it came on so fast didn't have time to do anything.
  6. Little town of Chimney Rock, NC is gone.
  7. Biltmore is under water. They were expecting it to crest 2 feet below the arch over the entrance road to Biltmore Estate.
  8. I grew up in Marshall, NC a small town about 20 minutes north of Asheville. The entire Western NC area is having major flooding with 2 dams failing. Trees have been blown down and power is out in most of the area. The last texts I received from friends said it looked like a war zone over a vast area. My hometown has a foot of water from the French Broad River running down main street. The Pigeon River has washed part of I40 away and both directions out of Newport are shut down. People are stranded, missing, etc. Communications are down in most of the area. Below is a screenshot from an announcement by the power company in that area.
  9. Sorry for your loss. We had Ginger for 9 years and 1 month. Thought we rescued her and she rescued us.
  10. We are very thankful she did not suffer and we take great comfort in that. Was probably just a day or two from a horrific issue.
  11. Good to hear she's been out of the hospital for awhile. Continued prayers for all of you!
  12. One part of TripleGGG is gone but will never be forgotten. The best dog I've ever had. 09-26-2024 Ginger was more than just a pet—she was family. She was the kind of dog whose wagging nub of a tail could light up the darkest days and whose presence brought warmth to every corner of our lives. From the first day she bounded into our hearts, Ginger was a source of unconditional love. She had that playful spirit, always ready for an adventure, but also knew when to sit quietly by your side, offering comfort in her quiet, gentle way. Her eyes spoke volumes—filled with kindness, loyalty, and the unspoken understanding that only a true friend could offer. Whether she was chasing after her toy frogs or curling up next to us after a long day, Ginger was always there. She had a way of knowing when we needed her the most, as if she could sense the moments when a wag, a lick, or a nudge of her nose could make everything just a little bit better. It's hard to sum up the depth of what she gave us—so many days filled with laughter, so many nights with her soft fur beneath our hands as we rested together. Ginger’s love was pure, without hesitation or condition. She taught us the true meaning of loyalty, of joy in the simple things, and of being present for the ones we love. Though she's no longer physically with us, Ginger's spirit will forever be part of our lives. We'll see her in the quiet moments of peace, in the familiar places she loved, and in the countless memories she’s left behind. Ginger may have had four paws and a wagging nub of a tail, but she had the heart of a giant. She taught us about love, patience, and living each day with a sense of adventure. And for that, we will be forever grateful. Rest easy, sweet Ginger. You were the best, and you will never be forgotten. Your paw prints are forever on our hearts.
  13. Well get some 410gr subsonic 45-70, slap a suppressor on it and it's just a nice firm push. At least that's what I tell myself. It does make a difference though.
  14. One will never regret a 45-70. I keep buying more of them to make sure. Lol. Now the sore shoulder is a given.
  15. If your going to be near Lenoir City anytime soon I would take them all.
  16. I'll take it per our PM. Thanks.
  17. Got mine today. Great looking knives. I guess I should have ordered 3. My wife has laid claim to one as she loved how it opened with AUTHORITY per @Chucktshoes.
  18. Trade with confidence. @AuEagleis a great guy.
  19. It's a whisper.
  20. Oh I love suppressed lever guns. Especially 45-70. Lol
