contrast the pictures below with those a few post above in this thread with the ones below .... the damaged tree is gone .... quiet a change .... for us, having it gone is a major plus, one that will drastically improve our satellite TV signal reception

UPDATE :

while some news from Western NC are promising but the scope of the damage is still horrific .... there is some talk that some traffic flow might be restored over I-40 by the end of this year .... water has been restored to most of Asheville but it still can't be used for human consumption .... IF the roads are open to traffic the size of our rig before we are due to head for SD we will probably change our route from the one shown in post 1 in this thread .... at this point all we can do is watch and wait

as much as we enjoy spending our summers in Estelline, there is no way we would want to be out there right now .... as this is being typed the temp out there is 8 degrees with a slight wind that breeze that brings the "Real Feel" down to 2 degrees .... they are calling for a high today of 18 with it falling back to 1 tonight .... looking ahead, the forecast says the temp will get above freezing on one of the next seven days .... that being for the temp to reach a balmy 38 degrees on December 14th .. ;)
