Aftermath of the Water Wheel Fire
What does one say about a fire that creeps too close to where you live, was probably caused by a careless use of fire and decimates the land for a generation? The people of Whispering Pines, Beaver Valley, and to a lesser extent, Mesa del and Geronimo Estates, will constantly be reminded of what happens to an area that everyone enjoyed but some abused. It's a scar on the mind as well as the landscape and will heal slowly, if at all, for some who live in these communities year around. When will we as a species, ever learn to care for our land, our home, our earth?
