I and my friends have been following all the fires. The top stories on tv, radio news in So Cal are the fires. Happy to hear Gary and his family are safe and their home too. I used to have friends who lived in or near Weed, that fire was also caused by arson. The food and homes of the animals have also been destroyed. Maybe it's time to start planting berries and other vegetation to help the animals and tokeep the soil from eroding WHEN the rains fall again some day.
The fire in the hills at Santiago Canyon, about 20 miles from where I live was started by sheet metal in the sun getting hot enough to ignite dry brush.
