My heart is saddened. I grieve for my state of Oregon- and California and Washington.... So much heartbreak and loss.

All we have to do to stop this is controlled burns of large wide fire breaks. We used to do this and it worked. But then the greens started managing wildlife preserves and they do it in a way that guarantees that every few years a bunch of wildlife is going to get incinerated

It's not fun living in the bay area, with the double whammy of covid and the fires. I'm a strong person but rn I'm struggling to keep myself from falling into a depressive spiral again

Living out west, it’s part of life. If you live in the woods have proper fire breaks

Thanks for encouraging me to chronicle what I was feeling Marianne, turned into this article.

Love Matthew. Glad he's writing and it is getting out there.

Just HEARTBREAKING!!
