Our Fallbrook home is at the top of a hill with thousands of trees all around us. It's really beautiful if it's not on fire......
I'm just starting to wonder if it will still be there when we retire :( . Last year, we had a fire to the east of us, today we have a fire on the West of us (Camp Pendleton). I'm getting a little tired of worrying about it.
