Discussion: California Fires Have Forced 50,000 From Homes

"…the state has experienced considerably more fire activity so far this year …"

No kidding. Waking up to smoke on the horizon and Nixle alerts throughout the day, are the new norm where I live.

And Potus is tweeting about shutting down the government and the NYTimes. 5 people lost their lives and likely that toll will climb, Yosemite is closed, big fires in So.Cal as well but our hard working guy is busy tweeting nonsense and playing golf at tax payer expense. Laziest Potus ever and he cannot be gone soon enough for me.

I live north of Redding and I have to say I am deeply impressed with the response from the immigrant community. Plenty of restaurants and businesses are offering free meals, handling donations, etc, but either most are run by immigrants or else immigrants are doing a much better job of getting out the word than everybody else.

On a positive note I didn’t even know we had a Cuban restaurant and I’m stoked to go give them some of my business once this calms down

Where is the Cuban joint I get through there all the time?

Can’t find it now and I’m thinking I may have misread “Cabana” as “Cubano” : ( I am going to keep looking because I want it to be true really bad

I am very very hungry now, though
