<DIV>Hello, <BR><BR>Well, I hope to see lots of folks this weekend at the
contest in Andersonville! Right now, there is a very slight chance for rain so

problems in Andersonville. I called Mac to ask and he said that they did have
some smoke last weekend that cut down on the visibility some. But, it has been
great since then. If we get a south easterly wind, then we may see some smoke in
the area. Also, please keep in mind that if you are driving up through FL, there
is a possibility of road closures so it wouldn't hurt to have a backup plan
mapped out. Currently, there are no roads closured and I copied this from the GA
DOT website... <BR><BR>UPDATE 2:30 PM Wed. May 30: The wildfires continue to
burn in South Georgia. Combined, they cover an area larger than the state of
Rhode Island. However, crews have made progress in containing the fires. All
interstates in South Georgia and North Florida are currently open for travel.
<BR><BR>You can check their website to make sure before you get on the road that
they are not closed... <BR><BR><A

away to some lucky pilot! <BR><BR>Thanks, </DIV>
