We are still digging out from Helene. Trees down every where, but not as bad as North Carolina of East Tennessee which caught most of the rain. I avoided any major physical but it took 4 days without water, 7 days without electricity and 36 days without internet

What gorgeous sweet potatoes. ❤️Helene was certainly one for the books. So many are still without water. It is scary to think how that can happen in this day and age. Glad you are ok.
