Even though the weather cleared in the area of our intended Run For The Hills, in the end, it was a good decision to postpone the event. I have been trying to reach our evening dinner restaurant since Thursday.

Graff's Tavern is only about one block from the river that passes through Franklin. I fear that they have suffered damage. NCDOT has warned that all roads in Western North Carolina should be considered closed.

I will try to either do a scouting run before the rescheduled date or obtain road information from some of the locals before the rescheduled date. I would welcome anyone to come along on that trip. Maybe the weekend of October 5.
