We had some special visitors that paased through the motel this morning to help kick off the Old Timey Festival. These pack mules played a vital role in the days after Hurricane Helene, carrying food and water to people who couldn’t get out.

A huge thank-you to them and to everyone who stepped up during that time. We’re so grateful to be part of such a strong and caring community!
