Possible New State Motto

Two of the many things in the news recently about California are wind and fire.

No puns about earth please....

So we have just finished quite a 24 hours here in Sacramento with some robust wind and quite a few fires. There were large fires in the Bay Area and a quite destructive fire in the Wine Country, still raging today.

The region's largest electrical provider PG&E is shutting down power lines before hand to reduce the chance of a falling high tension line starting a fire, again.

It was the same last year when I arrived (yes, almost one year) with fires raging north of here. But this time the fires were closer, much closer. Two freeways were closed in Sacramento today due to a fire, a shopping center suffered a fire in South Sacramento. Brush fires in the River DIstrict, adjacent to downtown, were burning. As well as this, they are trees down everywhere and quite a lot of dust in the air.

The price we pay living here I suppose.

But this leads me to the title of this post.
After fires, wind, (we had a tornado last month), floods, blizzards, drought and earthquakes, I came up with a new motto...

"California, Still Hurricane Free"
