are you near the fires?
The fires are not in the Central Valley of California. They are south of here on the other side of the Tejon Pass down near Los Angeles area.
The first one was in the San Fernando Valley I think. Then it sounded like there were some arsonist copy cat fires started in other areas down there.
We get fires in the hills near here just before Christmas. The Indians who get called up for firefighting set them to earn their Christmas money. That is not a racist statement. It is a fact.
