    For several decades it seemed that the USFS failed to manage the forests but I suspect it was substantially prevented by endless lawsuits by anti management groups. Now, after so many mountain communities have been damaged by fire, the county and forest service have joined to manage the forest to protect homes from fire. I think they're doing a good job here.
    that's good. The daughters place in Central CA. She redid some forestation around the property, removing, trimming / cutting back. Think it was a good idea, with all the fires CA has? of course not. Some sjw F&G noticed the work , entered property w/out permission. Took pictures which started a major confrontation between her and the epa, of all places.

    Seems she didn't get .............. a permit, submit a wetlands impact study etc.
    Looking at $25k in fines, she told them to take her to court, and iirc go fuk them self.
    Since the sjw entered property uninvited, "they" decided to settle for a $2500 fine and DON'T DO IT AGAIN warning.

    The up side is the sjw was suspended for over aggressive tactics.
    She still does fire mitigation on their place, and surrounding properties.
    Now in CA no one hardly says anything, after that fire that wiped out a town in NorCal.

    Guy on a fancy Harley just laid his bike down trying to back into a spot. Had a buddy help him get it up. All the people in front of the window noticed. Ha

    Now everyone is taking turns laying down in the parking lot looking at the damage to the driver side exhaust and hard side saddle bags.

    Doing it in the workmobile is kinda anticlimactic.

    Salon vs Saloon?
