Been staying busy, making deliveries quickly, and building inventory for holiday sales coming up.  Always odd during presidential election years, never know how things will go.  North Carolina, our state, has been through two gnarly tropical storms in less than two weeks. One on the east coast and then Helene devastating Western North Carolina and parts of Tennessee.

Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with those folks, the first responders, and hundreds of volunteers helping there and all along Helene’s path from Florida up through the North.

As of October 1, 2024, Helene has killed (unofficial numbers) 56 people killed in North Carolina, 30 victims in South Carolina, 25 in Georgia, 11 in Florida, 4 in Tennessee and 2 persons in Virginia. The death toll will surely rise…so sad.
