    The smell of distant smoke. But so far, no burning embers or hot ashes falling here. #SoCal #Apple_Fire

    For those asking, no, the Apple Fire is not near me. I can see smoke, but it would take at least a couple of days to get here, based on the behavior of previous #SoCal brushfires.

    Here in my #SoCal hometown, the #weather should get cooler. I don't see any smoke from the Apple Fire in Cherry Valley today, but I see evacuation orders for parts of Banning, Beaumont, Calimesa, Yucaipa, Oak Glen with no indication that they are rescinded.

    For some time, I've had the general feeling that this part of #SoCal, once so safe that many people did not lock their homes or vehicles, is becoming more like the urban core of the Los Angeles area about one hundred miles away.

    The grandkids' aunt's boyfriend works for a local police agency. She described the area as "there are fewer and fewer safe neighborhoods anymore", basically confirming my intuition.

    I wanted to write about the recession that changed my life more than any other one to date, but discussing that time would give people too close of a fix on my age. Suffice it to say that the commercial and industrial buildings that were boarded up in the town where I went to high school stayed boarded up for around twenty years, so jobs in that part of #SoCal were scarce, but rents continued to rise. Eventually, almost everyone I knew had to leave the area.

    > ... smart people are leaving the cities ... they can work from home ...

    For at least the last 30 years, people with any perception have been trying to put a little distance between the cities and themselves. There has always been a desire to stay near the cities because of the amenities: plays, sports, museums, music ...

    Only, now, they know that they can live without physical proximity to those things.

    In the 1980s or maybe 1990s, I read a book where the author talked about places called "exburbs". Exburbs are smaller communities far enough outside of large cities that most people would not regularly commute, but close enough that if there was an occasional need to go to the city, one could do so. Exburbs, according to that author, all those years ago, are the places where smart people should have been moving from the time the book was written. (I think it presupposes that "smart people" have jobs where they did not have to be present in $COMPANY's big city building for work each day.)

    NOTE: Here in #SoCal, places that fit that description in the 1980s or 1990s are considered (long) commuting areas now.

    According to Accuweather, it is 100F here in my part of #SoCal, with a "RealFeel" of 109F. Also 100F (RealFeel 105F) in Mesa, #AZ. That's quite an accomplishment, to be as hot as the Phoenix area.

    Arden-Arcade, in the #Sac area, is 86F (RealFeel 93F), but the Sacramento Valley and parts of the San Joachin Valley have heat advisories, so it could get much hotter in other parts of the area.

    Listeria is a big deal. There used to be a dairy in #SoCal that produced raw milk, but I have not seen their products in years. AFAIK, they weren't the ones contaminated, but regulators will tackle every possible source when responding.

    #SoCal #InlandEmpire having a creative writing “summer camp” for teens. This is the first one I’ve heard of, but apparently, it has been going on for a few years. This year, they’re focusing on fighting racism.

    IMO, they should just teach the kids to express themselves as they write. As writers, the students will write about whatever is important to them, including the impacts of racism that they’ve observed.
