Uncle Sugar is actively working to keep those Southerners from doing just that in NC.
Most of the alphabet agencies are nothing more than a way for politicians to skim money and enrich themselves through the vendors they hire. It's sickening the way this country has become.
Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Milton was something that I don’t want to go through again. I stayed through it. Reinforced concrete fifth floor condo with hurricane shutters and windows.
Still no power or internet. We have water but it's non-potable. Still no sewer so it's like we're camping. Finding gas for the one car that survived and LP to power the generator have been fruitless. There is some balance between using the gas you have in the car to go find more gas.
Things are getting slowly back online. Power should be restored by Wednesday. Our neighborhood smells like wet furniture, mold, death and decay. I'm sure a lot of animals took shelter in the debris piles but got killed. Everyone’s debris piles shifted. We have a refrigerator that ended up in our yard from who knows where. Some of our stuff is a few houses down. They started clearing our neighborhood yesterday. One truck only. They only got to three houses yesterday so it'll be a slow process. We had to stop hauling debris from the yard due to lack of space in the driveway.
All work stopped when the vegetable in chief decided to come out to the beach. They shut down the main road so all hauling, line men, etc could do nothing for four hours.
All flood mitigation from Helene has stopped in the house so mold has started to take over. No power so they can't work. Still waiting on asbestos testing before they could start anyway. The lab has no power to do the testing.
The one respite is that my mother-in-law flew to Texas before the storm so we're staying at her place that somehow did not loose power and has internet.

Just in time for opening weekend.
Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.
