Update guys,
Well we dropped off the supplies to the necessary areas and started working with clean up. About 12 hrs of chain sawing 5 hours of moving supplies around and maybe 2 hrs of sleep, we are heading home. The emergency crews said they didnt want too many people around doing too much just yet, as they could still be bodies to be found. So we helped clean up the roadways for them and ensured they had paths to where they needed to go. On the way back to TN, but sounds like we might do another trip next weekend too, depending how things are going. My deepest prayers and tears are out for all those effected! Sorry I didnt have time to get any pics, not to mention its heart breaking, plus we were too busy doing other things. Good luck my Bama brothas and I am here for ya!

Scott, have a safe trip back to TN, thanks again for your help and support...

Not 100% sure on this, haven't been able to confirm for myself, but one of our friends said that they heard rescuers have found 9 people alive....trying to confirm for sure, but if so, PTL!!!

Good evening Alabama. I have power. My neighbor said that her son said not to get used to it. There is still several months of work to make it stable.
