The Jim & Sue Smith family from Apex, North Carolina. Wonderful hosts for this past weekend. (Oct. 6-8th) Great food, great company, great family, and did I mention that Jim brews his own beers? Here were the headlines the day I arrived.

APEX, N.C. - More than 17,000 people were urged to stay out of their homes until at least Saturday after a thunderous series of explosions and a raging fire at a hazardous-waste disposal plant released a plume of thick black smoke and a yellow cloud of noxious gases.
No employees were believed to have been inside the EQ Industrial Services plant when the blasts rocked it late Thursday. Officials said 44 people went to emergency rooms, most complaining of breathing problems, but nearly all had been released by midday.
Yes, my friends from Apex warned me that I was going to enter into the 'hazard zone'. Still had a great weekend. Does chlorine smell like bleach?
