High winds, killer range and forest fires, state wide corruption, mud slides, earthquakes, city bankruptcy, state bankruptcy in the works.

I’m right by Knotts Berry Farm right now and the wind has died down. It was crazy this morning and blew my greenhouse partially over. Luckily I saw it and was able to get out there and anchor it before it ended up in the neighbor’s yard.
