Well, the hammer has started to drop. Yesterday there had been no homes burned out by the fires. During the night 53 homes were burned out. One fire alone has burned 105,000 acres. Two firefighters were killed when the truck they were driving crashed off the road and fell 800 feet. Mother Nature used to burn the combustibles on a regular basis while we tend to leave it lay around expensive homes (to be burned out by an uncontrolled fire). And it's still hot! Even at dawn the temperature in Fullerton was 77 degrees. Ugh. And today is forecast to be more of the same, only SLIGHTLY less.
The photo was taken during my walk with the sun up but hidden behind the clouds. The break in the clouds revealed a very muted sunrise But it was there. Beautiful sunrises are the up side of the fires.
Republican bipartisanship makes me wonder if we're all on this flight together.
