But we accepted it as the price we paid for living in that part of the country.

We have some wildfires burning here where I live now. We had a relatively mild, dry winter and the trees are dry too. I hope the firefighters will get the upper hand on all of the fires burning out of control.

The heat being worse because of the fires - that's exactly what I just heard on the news. So the high heat causes the fires, the fires cause high heat...it's a vicious cycle.
