Pause and take a collective exhale with me…  The presidential election is behind us. Now that the chaos is over, we can focus on what’s ahead. I’d suggest taking a little sage advice from those t-shirts we had in 2010 – “Keep Calm, and Carry On.”  With a new president in office, there are going to be plenty of tax legislation changes in the near future – those Trump proposed… Read More

As I write this, election day is only hours away.

In the case of Helene and western North Carolina, it’s been a difficult battle.
