My good man Greg F- Where ever one lives in the world today, things just don't appear to be right with the weather (IMO). For you in California it is either grass/forest fires or torential rains and mudslides. We have our issues here in Michigan too, In Oregon where I spent the first 50 years of my life, we had two seasons...the rainy season and the rainy season. I remember about 10 years ago, 45 days in a row of rain. We lived on Sauvie Island west of Portland, the river came up and we were cut off from the mainland and were supplied by the Army National Guard. We ate in the grade school and were finally allowed back in our water soaked homes a week later. I feel for you and hope your come out OK. Wish best good wishes, Jonezee
