My grandparents were born in the Waynesville/Hazelwood area. My great aunts and uncles are still there. Over the years there has been lots of development and so many trees have been cleared from the mountains. It is no where as cool as it used to be. My aunt often comments on how hot it has gotten now in the summer. But it may be a little cooler than here.
I will say, though, that it is a beautiful place!!
