AXTON, Va. - A Henry County family is living out of tents after a fire destroyed nearly everything they own. "It was hot and smoky and I couldn't stay in there more than a couple minutes," said Fred Taber. After losing their Axton home in a fire, Fred and Dorothy Taber have moved into tents on the property. It became a lifestyle because a lot of Tabers live here -- 13 to be exact -- including some who can't move far at all. This fire took a lot from the Tabers, but the one thing it will never take is their optimism.

Ahead of the game -- the feeling every team wants to have in two months as a new high school football season kicks off.
