Each year in Southern California, the fall is marked by the arrival of the Santa Ana. These winds are described in two different texts, “Brush Fires” by Linda Thomas and “The Santa Ana” by Joan Didion. Both pieces address the relationship between the wind and the community, using rhetorical devices to convey their views. Thomas presents a wind that is essential to nature. Didion, on the other hand, sees the wind as a characteristic Los Angeles, that can sometimes be detrimental. The writers also have contrasting experiences with the fires causes which cause drastic differences in tone, portrayal of the winds, and the overall message within each text.

Nestled deep in the mountains of Western North Carolina, the Linville Gorge is a federally designated wilderness area that is part of Pisgah National Forest. This unique slice of southern Appalachia is managed by the Grandfather Ranger District and is located in the Blue Ridge Escarpment near the town of Marion, NC. To the east, Linville Gorge is bordered by Jonas Ridge, and the slopes of Linville Mountain form the western border. The two steep sides create a terrain that is extremely rugged and rocky, which would seemingly make it difficult for vegetation to establish communities on the canyon walls.

In Chapter 29, it talked about the Cerro Grande Fire of 2000 in New Mexico. This fire started out as an intentional management fire.

Severns was found guilty of starting the fire and was sentenced to seventeen years in prison. Prosecutors denied the ability of the aerosol cans to be the cause of the fire. However, after a video of aerosol cans bursting into flames was released, prosecutors admitted that the fire that took place in Severns gun shop could have been accidental. If the video was shown at the trial the outcome would have been different. Severns was offered a plea deal, but he refused the deal because he said he did not do it. I believe that Cameron is innocent. There is no where near enough evidence to prove him as guilty and the aerosol cans are very likely to be the cause of the fire. I do not think his outcome is fair, I believe they made a mistake for imprisoning
