Hi All no power 29 September till 4 October. No internet still or cable. Internet is hit and miss on my phone. Usually in AM till 9 AM and after 10 PM at night. I'm shocked I have it now. We are supposed to have it Wednesday.

We feel blessed, compared to Asheville which is only about 60 miles away.

Good to hear from you and to hear that you are safe. No internet isnt necessarily a bad thing.

Hi all.
We lost power 27 Sept about 7 a.m. we got it back on October 4th mid day. I got internet back this evening about 7 P.M. The only problem I had was trying to get my printer to work with my android phone. I had two eBay sales I need to get out.

Well that lasted for 5 days, then they took cable and internet back down, so from about 9 a.m. 21 Oct till 11 a.m. today we were down again, and my wife is a whiner and a half when she doesn't have tv 24/7.
Train wise not much going on here. got some homemade signals in that I wone about 2 weeks ago, not sellers fault, thank-you U.S.P.S.

I was on a plane headed back to Asheville, on Sat 10/05. A fellow on the flight, said Hickory , not back on till, Late p.m. of the 4th. and some on Sat 10/05, The flight going to Knoxville just before our departure, was totally packed,
as the flight coming back to A'ville, had only 31 passengers. Tourism is really gonna take a hit!!!

Never in my wildest dream did we thought a hurricane could travel almost 600 miles across land and still be a category 1 hurricane, tropical storm ( weak one ) yes.
