What special interest group paid off the corrupted DC pols to get this edict passed? Founders would be aghast at what this Govt has become.
Not to mention how we used to have controlled burns to do away with the underbrush until the environmentalist took over.
We had a controlled burn last week that escaped. As far as I know it’s still burning.
BTW- The fire in Auburn is 40 percent contained now.
Last air water drop for the day. Let’s hope the wind doesn’t come back up!
Auburn fire possibly arson. Just announced on the news.
Thanks for the good news that they are containing the fire! When we lived in SoCal in the 80’s, the underbrush was so bad that a single match would set off a major fire.
When we moved in our new home, we had sage brush covering the backyard. The guy we had clear it set a match to this huge pile and it was ash in a short time. He wanted us to see how fast it would burn — made a lasting impression. We have half an acre and planted grass with a sprinkler system. Several times we had embers blow down from fires in the mountains behind us but we had a tile roof and grass so we were okay. One time it did burn the backyard of one of the new homes that had not been sold and about half the fence before the fire department got there. I didn’t mind paying the weter bill to have the grass.
Day the movers were packing the truck for the move across there were fires burning and ash was going everywhere like rain on our house and sidewalk.
It is something I will never forget. Those blazes were started intentionally by someone. The fires all sprang up in three different locations on the mountain. Then I am driving to HEB and when I pulled in the parking lot, I saw a fire burst out in the Crafton Hills which unnerved me more that day getting ready to move.
Such a beautiful area and makes you sad to see it on fire.
