Aloha ,

The past few weeks have been quite a whirlwind while I've been in Minnesota, but none more so than this weekend. 

My oldest son, Zach, and his girlfriend live in Asheville, North Carolina and I couldn't reach them. You've likely seen all the devastation Hurricane Helene bought there. And not being able to reach Zach made me nervous...

It can be hard to keep your mind from jumping to worry. Yet, I knew the energy of worry would not help them! Instead, I kept focusing on the fact that they were ok and I would hear from them soon. 

You can imagine my relief when Zach called me on Saturday to let me know they were safe!  And unbelievably, they had no flooding or damage in their home or retail space. However, many friends of theirs did. 

They have electricity, but still do not have water or cell service/wifi. They can now walk down the street to get service, but they have no idea when things will be restored.

The pictures below are ones Zach took in an area that was filled with artist studios and shops (Asheville boasts a big art community). 

Zach is an artist too and they were meant to do a grand opening of their own retail shop yesterday. Thankfully, all of their art and clothing is safe. However, it will be some time before that opening can happen. You can check out Zach's art here. 

Highways and other roads are closed and the airport is mostly closed. There are only a couple grocery stores open and the stores are running out of food. Getting gas is also a challenge because the few stations that are open have limited hours and long lines. 

I also know there are others stuck in flooded areas who can't get out and have no electricity or running water. It's going to be a long road to recovery there (and in other areas, like Florida, impacted by the hurricane). 
Please keep them all in your prayers!
