Did you know that when "Tangled" came out that a bunch of my Sunday School kids told me I looked like the evil mom (Mother Gothel)?  It was a running joke for a LONG time!

I knew you looked familiar!

Probably not.

DYK that for a child that couldn't wait to build her first snowman of the year, Duckling did everything BUT build one today?
Correction. She is still young for forts.

Fire department orders us remove brush for 50 foot around your house. We live on a very steep canyon and that brush is what keeps the hill side together (and the house from toppling down into the canyon). We try to grow ice plant with is not very flammable.

I think if it is a fire risk you have to obey. There is some sense to it. A few years ago when we had to evacuate, the fires came to within less than a mile of the house, and took many neighborhoods with it.

DYK that I live just slightly north of you? Luckily the houses here are built on hills rather than the canyons near you. We used to have tons of ice plant (essential on a slopped property) but we got so dry a couple years back that it killed most of it off. I remember joking at the time, that you know its dry when even the ice plant is dead. I really miss it, especially after the 3weeks of rain we just had.

The fire department can make you trim a tree??? Really?

Why? DYK I do not understand this. it's your tree, your yard and your house...


I could understand the insurance company saying you need to trim or cut a tree, but not the fire department. I guess I am too libertarian or anarchist to make sense of this.

I guess the issue is that the tree is hanging over the road & the new fire trucks with the ladders on top can't get to the houses behind me incase of emergency. DYK that fire is a major issue down here for most of the year. I'm all about being fire code compliant, but the financial aspect of getting this tree trimmed is gonna be severe. DYK this tree is a behemoth Ficus? Probably 50ft tall & nearly as wide. Most of the branches just by themselves are as thick & as long as trees.
