Last weekend I went to North Carolina to try and assist with the hurricane relief effort. Due to some misinformation we were not needed over there. Someone had posted on facebook they needed people to backpack in supplies, which may have been the case early on but was definitely not when we arrived. In fact, we went to three separate distribution centers as deep as you could go in the Carolina mountains before the road petered out entirely. It was like a forward firebase in Vietnam with all the helicopter traffic, ATVs and supplies in there.
If you read my last column on the firetowers then you will notice the name Wayne Davis. He lost his life’s possessions in this flood.
If you really want to help someone, then consider my friend Wayne and his partner who lost their life in this catastrophe. Here is a link to their gofundme. I can verify this is legit and the money will go to them and not some random agency. I can’t get to him still so let’s just give them the means to obtain what they need. Here is a link to the donation page for them.
