Probably not. They wouldn't have had the time or resources to do that safely.

I wonder if the picnic tables have some flame retardant applied to them. People often put hot things like BBQs on them

It's tragic to see beautiful spaces destroyed by fire. It's tragic to see summer now being referred to as fire season in many places. Now Lytton, BC has fires in the area again. :(

The tables just get fresh paint occasionally. I agree that fire is devastating. The underbrush is already growing. to cover the bare ground.
 
With the overwhelming drive for automation, a question poses itself:
  • Is autonomous drive without feeling good
  • Or, is feeling good mechanically, beta?
  • Imagine the devices that could avoid contact with characters of differential positions?
  • Individual perspective, or world vision against cosmos vision (from way out there)!
That should insert a sense of complexity in the simpler sights of the scantily covered in the deep forest pools ... emerald eh! Vertiginous poets ... as Malecite plants ... vege tales? That should get Jae to the tipping point of Ara Rei ... just as he was beginning to believe heed seen and known it AL ... God! What came after the Jude David ... stripped of everything ... manifestly unadorned as God commanded? AD? The myth was goosed up further ...

Something else not grasped by the paradigm ...

The only tipping point I'm at right now, Luce, is needing to get up and get to work

I wouldn’t define anything that one does to friends or relatives as “volunteering”. Though we usually do things voluntarily, you wouldn’t say “ I volunteered to hang out with my best friend”. I would define volunteering somewhat like working- just mostly unpaid. One doesn’t have an emotional relation to clients one works with and one doesn’t expect to get anything back- it’s based on a professional attitude. Stuff you do for friends and family is based on an emotional basis.

Isn't that a form of nepotism slickly placed there as a virtue?
 
Life has gotten so complicated with powerful people trying to make it simple again ... the dragon returns (perhaps in the form of a lizard brain) snaky and get with four legs? It has various qualities that are both good and bad ... like steroids on the run!

Some may be extracted from the vegetation and forest ... like isoprenoids! The wealthy market them as their private preserve ... there's more to it!
 
Good morning! How is everyone? Happy Tuesday! Volunteering to be a volunteer... that question would never have occurred to me. We remember those whose lives are affected by fire and smoke, for the well being of people and picnic tables, and also for the people in Texas dealing with the flood disaster, seemingly with little or no assistance from FEMA. We gather around the Coffee Cart with these issues, plus whatever else we bring with us, for conversation, connection, and community. We also drink tea and coffee; we have some scones to enjoy with them. The tea water is boiling, the coffee is freshbrewed, and scone delightfully warm. All is ready, all welcome. Come join the conversations!

Your thoughts, Mrs. A., and you're welcome to them. My granddaughter and I during our Zoom time absolutely have but a teacher/student relationship and I'm doing the work for free where I might usually charge $30/hour. If you don't consider that volunteering, meh

The nepotism of my doing work for free? Kindly zip it, Luce

Is that a polite way of directing things your way ... is that your Franc? He too was quite a rooster!

You never did learn much about Amos ... dijah? Satyr as a mule ... how uncouth ... a power in Judah worked that way ... alas the power went as possessed!

It is a shape of OCD a personification development ... understanding of such things is out there ... beyond you-know-what!

It is a conjecture loaded with noia ... it is a grand word to research if not stuck on the topic of power! Said to create humility when we discover how little we know of the classic tongues ... they are quite something to mess with in sight of authorities ... they dislike that as something that boredom! Thus ode Eire ... stinking contemplation and thought (many tyrants avoid such). Word play???? It doth befall as d' eath'r ... an essence! Some get it many don't ... and before you know it it passes ...

I guess you never heard Mrs. A's expression of work and keeping it all in the family! Thus that arch Eire ... like a rover ... and the rest stops and observes ... maybe logs the impression as fine and misty ... those that decided to know not were left in the cloud! There a lot of dirt to examine ...

Some call it gossip and biblical personalities dipped into the container ... others intensively! The powers only extant ... there are other words ... branes?

Meme sum ... this goes on ...

Sad to say, Luce, I'm putting you back on ignore

Great move ... close it down! The gated realm extends ... like getting caught between 4 walls ... a scene could be constructed ... then some back into the wardrobe and log it ... some escaped sol established that out of royal confinement! Wahl being built from 2 sides ... Denarius! Diabolical bare-rear ... barrier?

Implications ... will Jae become perfectly autonomous? Doubtful ... as Thomas declared ... regarding the a' priori flash ... a non intellectual bust ... pure emotions? What a study ... plural as multi-etude? Like racial cleansing ... what would happen to the normal man if you extracted the shades from the spectre?

Ohl ORD it did come down ... nestlings gather like follicles ... sometime presenting goose bumps ... foul floc?

My opinion on this is similar Mrs. Anteater. Passing on knowledge and skills to family and friends is just how life works. Deciding to give time to a specific person or group is volunteering.

Obviously see it differently. Deciding to give time to a specific person or group is deciding to give time to a specific person or group. I'm giving a professional service to a specific person
