    Just let me know if any of this would be of benefit to them. No problem if it's not. Someone will find it all useful sooner or later.

    I'm in the Anderson/Williamston area if there's a need to connect.

    Kitchen stuff would be very helpful. I may be running to the upstate area soon to pick up things. If any of you up there know each other and could pool it in one place it would be helpful, but I will come to individuals too. They have nothing and at least I can be a taxi if nothing else. Thanks again.


    If a man is alone in the woods, says something, and a woman does not hear, is he still wrong?

    I have a queen size sleigh bed frame, and a square kitchen table, that they're welcome to. The table isn't in the best shape but it's sturdy and it works. If someone is going from this area, holler at me.

    Edit: also have a bedside table/night stand.

    I'll take a look at what's in the boxes out in the garage and see if my wife might have some other stuff to throw in there. I know she cleaned out her cabinets last year and gave a few boxes away, but she might still have some extra stuff around.

    I know I've got a fairly new bowling ball, bag, and size 9EEE shoes if they need any entertainment items, although I doubt that's a priority right now.

    If people want to drop stuff in Greenville, I can palletize and ship from my office or hold for pickup. I will be happy to donate metal bed frames and however many pillows they need.

    Just give my a heads up if you are dropping off. We are only open on weekdays but I can meet anyone here on the weekend if needed.

    Going to York, then Williamston, then Fountain Inn Saturday.

    I think beds are taken care of now. Could use two more dressers, or one dresser and a chester drawers. I have a 35 inch wide tv I am giving them, could use something to put it in or on. Anything for a bathroom. Anything for a den/living room. Anything for a kitchen besides pots and pans, I have a set for them. Old things are fine, they are not picky at all and are very thankful for everything given.

    Nice to meet you today. We'll continue to pray for those folks, as they start over. I can't imagine what they're going through, and wish we could've done more.

    Sorry I didn't have enough here to make the side trip worth your while, but it was great talking to you today. Hope your travels went well, despite the idjits out on the road.

    Best of luck to your cousins as they start anew.

    Thank God they are lucky enough to have you in their lives, and thank all that is good that they have resources to get back on their feet. I hope you encourage them to take out a renter's policy at the next place they are living. For around $100 a year, they can insure $20k of personal property. That check is cut within days of a claim, like a house fire, being filed. Cheap insurance to never have to rely on others. God bless everyone who has helped these folks; hopefully, they pass it on.

    Oh they will. Lesson learned, I think.
