Fall






This is a little bit of what Fall looks like at our house. We live in an area that was burned in the man made Rodeo-Chediski Wildfire in 2002 over 468000 acres were burned. The house we bought was one of the very few that was saved from burning down. Almost six and a half years latter you can still see evidence of the fire less then 20 feet from our house. The fire wood that we have been cutting is all the dead and down trees as a result from the fire, the forest is full of them as you can imagine. The area is growing up nicely and there is plenty of wild life back in the area. Mostly there are pine and oak trees in this area so the fall colors are not very vibrant But I enjoy them any ways. I like to tell people that the house was saved for us. That's why it didn't burn.(It did have a little burn damage; they had to replace the roof)
