If something bigger happens I’m sure the swine flu will be pushed to the bottom of the page. At least that’s my hope. Europeans are being warned about travel to the U.S. and it may have an impact on North American travel this summer but in reality it’s too early to tell and my personal belief is that this will pass.

When we arrived in Horry County a couple of days ago we noticed a large smoke cloud. Later we learned it was from the forest fire. On Wednesday night we could smell smoke in our hotel room even though we were at least 1o miles from the fire. From our sixth floor balcony we could see a glow at night. As of today we don’t see or smell smoke. I haven’t checked the weather but I hope a heavy rain is coming. Check out links from The Sun News below for more information:
