[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13:15 here again.  Hmm.  I don't worry about the water situation.  What exactly is your DH worried about?  You'll remember Southern California living, you get in the shower, get wet, turn off the water to soap up. Change your lawn out for a xeriscape.

The thing out here to worry about is fire; if you look at the damage of the last years--The Thomas Fire burned from Ojai to SB and beyond; it was INSANE and then it caused a mudslide that killed 26 or so people, one of whom was a family friend.  My mom was trapped for three days in her retirement community.  Malibu burned a couple of years ago.  But the part of Ventura you are looking at wouldn't be in a burn area.

fun fact, that round hotel in Ventura is where Little Miss Sunshine did her debut scene.[/quote]

You chump. The water "situation" is what causes the "Fire" situation.[/quote]
Wow that is pretty rude of you.  I was just trying to figure out if the OP's DH is worried about water bills or what, exactly.

And btw to get technical, the water situation did not cause the fire situation.  California is not a garden that is bereft of water; it is a desert and meant to burn and the plants are meant to survive it.  People have not let it burn, so the load has gotten to to be too high--so then when we do get fires, we get super-hot fires that burn so hot it kills the roots of the plants--which destablizes the slopes making them prone to mudslides.  What directly caused the fire "situation" is that practice, plus the utility companies who did not do any upkeep on the power lines, which sparked the fires.[/quote]
