Aaaaaaawe - she is !!!!! : )))) Thanks buddy for finding time to give us all those cute and silly smilies - it makes posting much more fun !!!
Yeah, we have those fires in CA regularly since global warming "is not happening" ; ) . Winters are too mild and vegetation is just growing like crazy - lots of high grass and bush - ever saw "happy California cow commercial" ???. Anyway - all of that grass than gets scorched by warm and dry early spring and summer and voila - perfect conditions for fire to start and when it starts - oh boy - redwoods and eucalyptus burn with speed of light. It is surreal almost to see fire "jump" from one top of a tree to the other - even across the streets ! We personally never had one this close

. It is not going in our direction because of the wind - but wind can change the direction !!!! Oh well - it would than make me move to the pace I would rather be at anyway ; ) !
So, yeah, between earthquakes , mudslides ,wildfires and water shortages
life in CA is great LOL !!!!
