Sky Lanes Water + MRE Station in West AVL NC - November 2024
I never expected "filling vehicles with ten-year box-aged Sofia" to make it onto my 2024 bingo card. But there we were, hauling pallets of bottled water for days alongside the National Guard. They’re stellar people, and to top it off, they even taught me how to drive a forklift. Wonders never cease.
