Californians Gather To Celebrate Annual Wildfire Tradition

So, I keep asking my friends in California, explain to me why you live there again?

• You have the annual Wildfire festival.
• In the odd year that the Rains come, you have massive mudslides and flooding.
• You have one of the highest tax burdens in the country.
• And you have to deal with the insanity vortex in the Bay Area.
• Oh, and the occasional earthquake that could always be the potential (and often predicted) Big One.

Wow, makes living with a 14,000 foot volcano less than 60 miles away seem almost idealic.  I guess I can put up with the rainy season in Puget Sound (the time of the year known to out of staters as “Fall/Winter/Spring”).
