Good News: Firefighters, Skydivers, and Weird Wedding Venues
Here are a few more Good News stories making the rounds . . .
1. A 91-year-old in Missouri named Sam Sloan donated $500,000 to his town’s volunteer fire department. He’s lived there since 1960 and found out their budget was nonexistent. All their gear is from the ’80s and ’90s, and they only had $169 in their account. Now they’re getting all new stuff, and new trucks.
2. A guy in Texas named Al Blaschke reclaimed the record for oldest skydiver. He originally broke the record at 103, and then a Swedish woman beat it. So he recently snagged it back at the age of 106. (Here’s the video.)
3. And speaking of Texas: Two super-fans just got married at a Buc-ee’s gas station. It’s a popular chain in Texas and across the South. Their mascot Buc-ee the Beaver was there to witness the nuptials.
