This makes me sad! “Waycross” is about 40 miles SE from Douglas, GA. Which is where we used to live (for about 6 years). I really hope they’re able to protect Okefenokee Swamp from the fire! I’ve been keeping up with the story since it broke. It appears that the fire is really close to the swamp now. :/

I was also reading my hometown’s news website and see that the Blue Angels have canceled their show at the Vidalia Onion Festival this weekend. No one can blame them after the tragedy this past weekend, I think everyone knew they would need to cancel. I think the air show will still be pretty fun for those attending! I really wish I could be there for it.. for the entire festival! I used to go with my sister every year, even after the kids came! The kids always enjoyed the “street dance” and the air show! My dad’s favorite part is the Onion Run because he always run in it. For 63 years old, he’s one several medals! :]
