Blue Ridge Holiday Inn, Asheville - Hotel was evacuated yesterday

Why was Jon in Asheville? He was on a road trip, helping move a friend from Wisconsin to North Carolina, when Hurricane Helene changed everyone’s plans! He’s been “trapped” in Asheville on Tunnel Road the last few days, but he is SAFE, and helping others now. I said last night, “you’re actually going to have a hard time saying good-bye, because everyone there is your family now.”

Below are some pictures and videos he sent me last night. I don’t know the places, cant’ tell you what’s going on. Maybe some of you can us fill in!
