I remember because a couple weeks before that fire, a fire ripped through Anderson, where my parents live. It was such an awful time for both communities. I don't remember what started the Bella Vista one, but a chain dragging and sparking is what caused the Anderson fire.J.Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09211819677106829508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029299587784890117.post-6101081499412721282012-10-10T09:30:29.212-07:002012-10-10T09:30:29.212-07:00I don't usually think of Christmas shopping so...I don't usually think of Christmas shopping so early, but it was an odd circumstance.

Ugly green taffeta is wrong on a gazillion levels. So is asking someone to buy their own dress that they won’t wear again for the “honor” of hearing all the old ladies make comments about you not being married. Then they drag you in for the barbaric “look at the lonely women” event, the bouquet toss. Too many years of that for me. Thing is I never wanted to be married so I never understood why they drug me into the fray because I only ran the other way. LOL When I eventually did get married, we eloped.<br />Nanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06376476093305279684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029299587784890117.post-61824816709210245942012-10-10T06:33:10.349-07:002012-10-10T06:33:10.349-07:00Applying for jobs in person?

I think I read some time back that a wildfire went through it, and I've always wondered if the house we rented there burned. Do you know the area? I worked for KRCR TV in Redding. We enjoyed the restaurants there. I'm sure the place looks a lot different now.
