Well with the big fire we have going down near Santa Barbara and in that area, I guess water conversation is out for a few days. I was just watching it on TV and they are afraid the winds are going to really spread it today. So far it has stayed mainly in the canyons and there is no way to get in there to fight it, but if it starts getting close to towns and other structures they will have to get more people down there. I have always conserved water and never water my lawns in the Summer as they just die anyway and all I have to show for it is a big water bill. And when I wash a car, I do it with about 1 gallon of water in a bucket and a T-Shirt and Absorbent Jr. Even the city mentioned my small use of water over the years compared to everyone else. And for all of that, they raised the water rates because they aren't taking in as much as they used to. Cut back on usage of everything and pay more. Makes sense I guess!!
