It has been quite a varied week for all of us with the Huntington Beach Oil Spill impacting our coastal lands, beaches, and wetlands. This was quickly followed up by a 22 acre brush fire in Brea and then an incredible lightning storm that ignited a fire in Yorba Linda. Here are a few images we snapped and videos of the latter two events.
This is your friendly, but VERY serious, reminder our hills are *quite* flammable. So are our cars, houses, possessions–even us–we are flammable. More fires start in the month of July than *any other* month in the year because of fireworks. Please DO NOT set off fireworks in any of the neighborhoods near the Puente-Chino Hills Wildlife Corridor–they are banned for a reason. Our safety, our lives, and our peace of mind are worth more than any firework display.
