Poor Visibility

I know someone who looked at a property to buy in the California Sierras, around Grass Valley...Single family house.

They went so far as to contact insurance companies for a quote on fire insurance.

AAA said they would not insure anything in that, nor surrounding, zip codes. Another insurer quoted them $14,000/year. The house was less than 100' from a hydrant and was in town...1/2 acre... They stopped looking.

Here, the rains have sprouted mushrooms all over the place. I wish I knew which ones you could eat...A mycophagist I am not!
