Fire Leaves 7 Homeless

PLEASE READ!

A family was left homeless after a fire broke out in their home Saturday morning.

This family needs help and you can help. Not only are they homeless but all the contents in the home were lost as well. I am putting up The Columbia County and Lake City Fire Dept's web sites here so you can contact them to see what you can do to help. Remember it's Christmas and every child should have one.

Many, Many Scenes

I know its been a while since I've posted but life keeps a person in a daze sometimes. I've been pretty sick and have been doing less scenes because of it. I decided to post quite a few of them here. I'm still hurting from this flu bug. It seems that there is a second faze that brings fever, body ache and much more. I hope you all are doing well.

I must also admit that I had thought about ending the site. I'm still not sure. When you bust your butt and people steal pictures from you, it makes you wonder if it's worth it. This site might be free but the Smilebox isn't and neither is my time or yours. So many of you work hard at these scenes to take care of people and the last thing that should be done is having your image and my shots stolen and used. I have a water mark that I can use and it's very tough to remove it. The only problem is it covers the shot. Let me know what you think. There is a comment button below or send me an email.

Two Die In Rollover (GRAPHIC)

This crash happened on I-75 Northbound just short of the 428 mile marker. I was sitting on my porch having my first cup of coffee when I thought I heard a tire blow on I-75, which is not uncommon. Suddenly there was another bang that was followed up with terrible crashing sounds. The noise of that vehicle rolling was a sound I shall never forget. I could not see the accident because of the tree line. Before calling 911, I went upstairs so I could tell them what they had. Before I got upstairs the call came out over the scanner.

Columbia County Fire, E.M.S., Sheriffs Office, Lake City P.D. and the Florida Highway Patrol were on scene so fast it was unreal. They did an amazing job and did everything they could to treat the victims. Make sure you thank them all for what they do.

Editors Note**There were no bodies in the vehicle when these pictures were taken.**

My Wife Is Injured In A Car Crash

A lot of you know me out there and know that I really take no pleasure in covering tragic events that occur to so many people on a daily basis. Last Wednesday, I was doing an advertising shoot for the paper when I received a very emotional phone call from my wife. It's the type of phone call that makes your mind go numb and puts your guts outside your body. She had just been in an accident and was in pain, scared and so much more. When I arrived at the accident scene, she was already in the E.R. The other driver was gone and our car was put into a field. I want to personally thank all those who treated my wife and those who visited her in the hospital.

This particular morning was the first time, that I can remember, that I didn't give her a kiss in the morning before she left for work. The reason, I was already working and I wanted her to get a little extra sleep.

If you love someone, let them know it. You never know when it might be your last chance.

Rollover Ejects Two

The information I have for this crash is limited due to the fact that I have not received the press release from F.H.P. I do not know if the male or female was driving but I did take eyewitness statements when I was on scene.
