If anyone cares, were on fire yet again. Not like a big deal i guess. were always burning. we get like 2 months of green, after march everything dies. then we burn..then the little bit of rain we get creates mud slides...
and people love socal? bleah

this is the view from my area last night. this is the "complex fire" they call it naming it after the apartment complex that burned yesterday in yorba linda.

Not a pleasant sight when it's in your backyard...

But I can't help but wonder if this is a case of "houses being built in places where they shouldn't be built" syndrome (such as in flood plains, etc.), and the fault of this situation is to be shared by local politicians and developers who build in locations ignoring the inherent problems with them.

what do they care, it's money they're after. land is valuable here, plop a house on it you can get half a million for it..no matter where it is! in the flood plain or on top of a hill with brush around it.
