We are the opposite of you[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] In the winter, our fields turn green and in the summer they turn to golden brown[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] commonly referred to as dead grass[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

Fresno's been doing this for years with "Leaky Acres" near the airport for surface water from the San Joaquin. It just takes a wile to perculate down. And they can only do it in specific areas because of soil type. People tweaked out when Clovis filled in and sold off their perculation land and then sought other land. Here's what people don't realise, the perculation area was recharging FRESNO's water table. The water flows under Clovis first "downhill" to Fresno. It made no sense to spend the money to recharge Fresno's water table. So they moved on to the SWTP.

Yea, in my career, I didn't get to cite enough of those people[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img] Yes it was, we didn't have any real raging fires that took a lot of homes. Ususally have a really good one or two thanks to the Santa Ana winds (I think that's what it's called)

 

I was talking up here. There was a pretty nasty Santa Ana Winds fire near Chattsworth, but it didn't damage too many houses, buildings, etc. Just was a fast mover. And you got the name right. Hot, dry desert air goes rushing off-shore (out to sea) from the high desert. Might as well run around with a heat gun pointed at the bushes.

Glad to hear you're getting things fixed up. Just Empty Every Pocket. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

One more day of work and then I'm off to Ft. Ord for the weekend. Seems that since I'm the one with the truck they've decided they want me to carry a bunch of stuff. At first I was asked about taking some rifles, which I was cool with. When we get somewhere, if it's just a few, it's not hard to toss those in the front seat. Now I'm hearing the leader wants me to take a trash can... A FLIPPIN TRASH CAN! WTF! I've got bags (Pismo trash bags) in the truck. I ain't hauling no trash can!

Don' you have one of those collapsible ones?? I picked one up at Camping World for like $8... unless of course he's got other plans for the trash can than collecting trash?? haha[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Nope. I just use you fancy toy hauler people's collapsable trash cans. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] We don't have a camping world here I don't think. There's a big place over on the west side that's an indoor RV showroom with a lot of camping stuff. I wish they'd open an REI, Cabella's (that's a possibility right now), etc.
