*"Kendra,

Shhh! Don't mention fire season. We're dry timber out here in California, and there are still idiots who flick live cigarettes out their windows. ::grrrr::"*

Boy do I know. I'm in the California Sierras and so far we've had 4 fires this summer. It's unnerving. I know we need the natural fires but some of these were too close for comfort and none began naturally. :(
