Country living: don't drink the water in Las Lomas.
Meanwhile, it's not even June and Santa Cruz County already had one of the biggest fires in recorded history. It's nothing compared to the fires in Southern California last year, but the area is small and largely covered by fire-resistant vegetation (redwood forest and chapparal). We don't usually get very large fires in Santa Cruz County.
About 4300 acres have burned so far: the fire is "nearly" contained. That's about 2% of the land surface of the county.
The air has an irritating quality: you can taste the ash when the wind is right.
