Here are some pics of the recent fires in Orange county. Some great shots. I did not take them as you could not get any where near unless you were news crew or press. Below these are some shots of the aftermath. No much was left where the fire hit. the hills are just dirt now and will erode badly should the rains ever come back. We have only had 3 inches in the last 18 months. 12 - 15 a year is normal. One day man will learn not to interfere with mother nature. A lot of this is due to very poor forest management over the past 100 years.
