Feeding the Fire

Fires have been devastating California for some time. Linholme was put to the torch in 2017. We are still cleaning up so new trees can be planted. Recent rains have allowed burn permits to be issued so we can burn old piles. Here Benito, one of our two Linholme employees, is stoking a pile. Watching him, I could not help but wonder if there is a circle in Hell where the punishment is feeding the very fire that is constantly burning you up. Because I know a lot of us do that.
