The Wild Hunt (https://wildhunt.org/tag/hurricane-helene)
It has been 88 days since Helene. Some days, it feels like years since the flooding, mudslides, and high winds forever altered Swannanoa’s landscape and the lifescapes of the people who live here. On other days, it feels as though it were surely only yesterday that she tore through these mountains.
We are receiving updates from the Pagan community in Western North Carolina intermittently as some services occasionally make for communication. The Wild Hunt s amazed at the work and resilience of our community in the region.
As I squirmed in the endodontist’s chair, trying to distract myself from the pressure and vibration of the metal tools – and the large needle – I realized that our nation, like my infected tooth, also needs a root canal.
