Tree Down in Senoia:
High winds blew a large oak tree down over Toonerville Road in Senoia. Traffic was blocked in both directions.

Coweta County fire and rescue units responded promptly, and with a lot of help from neighbors dragging limbs, the road was cleared in short order.

Trees have weakened roots systems due to the drought of 2007, making them vulnerable to heavy winds.

Country Music Legend Alan Jackson comes back to Newnan Georgia for book signing at Scott's Bookstore

Country Music Superstar Alan Jackson returned to his hometown, Newnan Georgia, on Tuesday April 29 to sign autographs of music CD's and his wife, Denise Jackson's latest book: "It's All About Him: Finding the Love of My Life."

The line extended out the door of downtown's Scott's Book Store and down the street, as friends and fans waited up to two hours to spend a few seconds with Newnan's most famous native son.

Alan and Denise were as cordial and friendly as could be under the circumstances, as they tried to accomodate everyone's desire for autographs and photos.

However, the weather was nearly perfect, and the crowd was orderly, and everyone seemed to enjoy spending the afternoon outside with other Alan Jackson devotees.

Afterwards, the Jackson waved to the crowd as he climbed into his tour bus for a well-deserved rest. It was a fine ending to a special day in Coweta County,
