3. The Reagan Presidential Library should be safe. They keep the surrounding grounds free from fire fuel with the use of go

I do not know know how close the fire is to the Library--but the goats keeping the brush down
sure will be helpful if the fire comes to it.

4. As someone who actually lives here...

We had a military-precision anti-fire attack by the VCFD who did a helluva job... 200 firefighters, 3 fixed wing and 5-6 helicopters within an hour... held the property loss to a minimum.

SoCal gets a bad rep for LA and it's problems... but Ventura County and the Northern parts of LA County are top notch

5. Under Red Flag Warning in NorCal as well

The wind yesterday was something. Leaves, branches, and whole trees scattered around the streets. I saw a massive palm frond get dislodged and smack someone on the noggin (they were fine).

We've had such late, late rains this spring with a lot of late growth - I'm still mowing the lawn weekly. Now it's all drying out with the wind and all that grass in the hills is browning. There have been a few controlled burns in the area to try and mitigate some of it, but not nearly enough.

It feels like we're about to have a whole summer of shit.

6. Close run thing for us

We evacuated but is burned right behind our property. We had to quickly get our 9 goats, four dogs, and house cat. Had to leave the chickens and barn cats behind. No time. The house three from ours burned down. Crazy.

7. Update - chickens and barn cats made it

We seriously lucked out. The goats did their job and ate all the brush so we were already in compliance with our brush clearing.

But damn that was close!
