Southeast United States is on FIRE!!
 
Yeah, there are brush fires burning from south GA all the way down as far south as Miami...You can walk outside anywhere within' a 50 to 100 mile radius of my house and it's allll smokey and ---- as if someone was burning a big pile of trash or something...Stinks, and gives you a head and stomachache, especially someone like me who doesn't smoke cigarettes and nobody in their house does either...We haven't had ANY rain here(at least at my house) in like over 3 weeks, possibly a month, month and a half...So if you're riding through south GA or FL by any chance, PLEASE do not throw out your cigarette butts...Smokey the Bear 'ppreciates it...

They actually caught two little punks starting fires purposely within' the last week, they were put out before any real damage was done but it could've been bad(can't get a whole lot worse), it's just so dry here...The original fire in Waycross, GA started when some workers were welding on the railroad, a spark flew out and POOF!!, 175,000 acres have burned in that area now at least, including a area called the Okeefenokee swamp, it's a wildlife preserve, lots of cool ---- there...They now also have fires in Pearson and Atkinson County and down in Lake City, FL...They say that down in Waycross, they could get 10 INCHES of rain(which isn't gonna happen) and it still wouldn't put out the fire, cause it's done burned way down into the peat moss...
