I grew up most of my life in Oceanside and Carlsbad, (WHERE RON LIVES). Most of these WILDFIRES are started by some stupid idiot who throws a cigarette butt out of the window of their car. What makes them so devistating is the SANTA ANA WINDS that blow from East to West. It's hot, Dry air that just FANS THE FIRES. Ron's House in Carlsbad is located not that far from the Former "CARLSBAD RACEWAY", off of Palomar Airport Road. Snake, I believe lives in Fallbrook, which is near Camp Pendleton and just North East of Oceanside. I can't tell you how many times friends and family had to Evacuate because of WILDFIRE DANGER! That, Earthquakes, and the unbelievable REAL ESTATE Costs is why I left in 1996. My Parents sold their house and moved to Hurricane, Utah, (Next to St. George.). I remember a few years back when they almost had to postpone The finals in Pomona because of the Fires in the San Gabriel Mountains.
I think Ron's house is not near any "HILLS" that are not cut off by Development, so he, Shelly, and the kids should be safe. Snake's house in Fallbrook, (if that's where it is...I'm not so certain about.) My Prayers are with everyone living in So Cal, having to deal with this situation.
