Being in the UK, I have a poor understanding of the geography of California, sorry. I hope all our members and their tortoises are safe and well clear of the awful fires. Wishing you all well.
Thank you, that gives me done idea of the area, although I'm not sure where you all live [emoji57]The only thing bothering my section of California about the fires is a pall of smoke laying over the whole valley. It makes the sun quite dim.
Where I live, Clovis, is right next to Fresno. The "Camp" fire is in the northern end of the valley near Redding, and the Southern California fire is down at the bottom of the picture around the Los Angeles area. It's approximately 500 miles from Redding to Bakersfield.
Wow, I bet that's beautiful [emoji2]See that spot of water all the way down at the bottom right? That's the Salton Sea...I live on the west shore.
Well, unfortunately the Salton Sea has huge ecological problems...it's drying up. But it is beautiful to look at.Wow, I bet that's beautiful [emoji2]
That's a terrible shame. We need to address the climate and ecological issues in the world. Hopefully one day it will be back.Well, unfortunately the Salton Sea has huge ecological problems...it's drying up. But it is beautiful to look at.
