Lake Hughes, CA 93532
Welcome to the idyllic 823-acre White Oaks Ranch. Just an hour north of Downtown Los Angeles, this property can be found cradled in the lush mountains and agricultural pastures overlooking the majestic Antelope Valley. Even the wildest imagination would have trouble envisioning an equestrian estate as rich in history as it is in amenities.
Former Vice President and Chief Executive of Hughes Aircraft Company, Lawrence A. (Pat) Hyland, was on a picnic excursion in the Lake Hughes area when he stopped at an apple stand inquiring about ranches for sale. When he was directed to the White Oaks Ranch, the rest was history. Hyland and his family purchased the land in 1959 to escape the pressures of the city.
While he had no intention of entering the horse breeding field, nor raising a potential world championship horse – as he was a man of technology – he purchased a few horses for his daughter and her friends to ride on weekends. After visiting a neighbor’s ranch to witness a foal evolve as one of the best quarter horses of its time, Hyland and his wife followed suit and went onto to raise a few of their own. Most notably, their racehorse Florentine was a favorite in the 1988 Breeders Championship Classic, winning 5 of 6 races.
The fully functional horse ranch where Florentine was raised includes a 10+ acre hybrid Bermuda grass Polo field, private horse trails on the hillside, a foaling barn, 15 horse pastures, three horse barns, an equipment and hay barn and a mare motel.
Set amidst gently sloping grounds with picturesque vistas, this incredible equestrian retreat helps enhance the property’s rustic yet luxurious finishes. Built in the 1800s, the main house is a recently remodeled Victorian estate. Wander through the property’s 823 acres to enjoy its four seasonal lakes, orchard, greenhouse, outdoor barbecue, vacant barn and animal sanctuary.
A natural energy of peace and tranquility is abundant throughout the meticulously crafted compound. Mr. Hyland’s unwavering care has helped White Oaks Ranch become one of Southern California’s most breathtaking properties. An equestrian estate of this scale affords the discerning buyer the opportunity to step into this quintessential lifestyle at a level that rarely comes to market.

In Wildfire's Path, Wrenching Decisions About What to Save
Thousands of people rushed to escape a massive wildfire charging across the tinder-dry Sierra Nevada foothills and another out-of-control fire that broke out in Northern California on Saturday, sending four firefighters to the hospital with second-degree burns.
The fire began in Lake County, about 100 miles north of San Francisco, and grew to about 15 square miles (or 10,000 acres) in just a few hours, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said.
The firefighters, all members of a helicopter crew, were airlifted to a hospital burn unit, where they were listed in stable condition, department spokesman Daniel Berlant said.
The fire forced the evacuation of two towns as well as residents along a 35-mile stretch of State Route 29.
To the east, a blood-red sun pushed through a choking fog of smoke and ash that turned California's grassy, tree-studded Gold Country an eerie white. Away from the burned-out cars and smoldering remains of homes, Annette Stout and other residents who fled the flames rested at evacuation centers.
Stout was ordered from her house Friday afternoon, and for the first time since her husband's death in March, she drove their recreational vehicle to safety in Angels Camp, a quaint town made famous by Mark Twain's The Celebrated Tale of the Jumping Frog of Calaveras County.
I grabbed my cats, their carriers, important papers, my husband death's certificate and his ashes, said Stout, who lives in the community of Hathaway Pines.
Despite the outpouring of help at the center set up at the Calaveras County Fairgrounds, she didn't sleep well. We knew we were safe here, but (I was) worrying about the house, worrying about those who didn't leave, she said.
The blaze ignited about 70 miles southeast of Sacramento on Wednesday and exploded to more than 101 square miles amid triple-digit temperatures and land parched from several years of drought. Crews increased containment to 15 percent despite a thick layer of smoke that kept air tankers and helicopters from flying Saturday.
Firefighters on the ground were hampered by rugged, hard-to-access terrain. With very little wind, the fires were driven by bone-dry brush and timber.
We're in a Catch-22, because without wind the smoke won't lift, said Mike Mohler, a Cal Fire spokesman. We needed the aircraft today.
The fire destroyed 86 homes, 51 outbuildings and was threatening about 6,400 more.
At the fairgrounds, Joe Thomas rested on a folded tent near his pickup truck, one of dozens of parked cars and RVs. He described what he could save from the flames — and what he couldn't.
I lost my business — it's all burned up — my shop, my house, 28 years of living, said Thomas, who lives near the community of Mountain Ranch. I got to start all over. It's depressing.
Thomas, who runs a tractor dealership and repair business, said he and his wife grabbed papers, his work computer, photos and their four dogs. But they left a goat, five ducks, six rabbits and more than 30 chickens behind.
I turned the pens open and turned them lose. I just couldn't gather them up, he said. All we want to do is go home. It's miserable.
Michelle Griffiths checked on livestock after spending much of the night rescuing her neighbors' four horses and seven cats in the community of Mountain Ranch.
People were running for their lives two nights ago, which is when her neighbors left their house and livestock for a motel, Griffiths said.
Fortunately, our house is still standing and so is the neighbors', she said.
Gov. Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency, helping free up funding and resources in the firefight. More than 3,850 firefighters were assigned to the blaze, and more expected to arrive throughout the day. Its cause is under investigation.
Meanwhile, new evacuation orders were issued Saturday for the largest wildfire in the state, threatening to sweep through an ancient grove of Giant Sequoia trees. The fire, sparked by lightning on July 31, has charred 201 square miles, according to the latest fire map released by the U.S. Forest Service.
In a fight to save the trees, firefighters cleared brush around the Grant Grove and set prescribed burns to keep the flames from overrunning it. By Saturday, the threat lessened when it became clear the backfiring and monitoring efforts helped protect the treasured trees, the Fresno Bee reported.
The grove is named for the towering General Grant tree that stands 268 feet tall. There are dozens of Sequoia groves in the Sierra Nevada, and some trees are 3,000 years old.

Road Review #3 - San Fancisquito Canyon Road part 2
Continuing with roads in the area I live in, San Francisquito Canyon Road is a long road, the two parts we drove are about 16 miles in total. It's a fun road that you can go for a nice cruise or run hard by yourself or with friends. It is however let down by the road quality in some areas. Lucky for us however, the city is slowing making progress on repaving the road. For both parts as a whole I give San Francisquito a 7.5 overall and it can easily be taken to an 8 or higher when you are with friends!
More Road Reviews to come over summer!

vickie V.'s Review on The Dyrt:
▶︎ Great Little Hideaway Haven
If you drive the Cherohala Skyway from Tellico plains, make a left onto Joyce Kilmer Road. You'll come to an intersection; Left gets you Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, Straight ahead will garner you a fabulous view from Maple Springs Overlook, and Right, will take you by Hose Cove Campground. Go Right first and secure a spot at this first-come first-served campground, nestled among the trees of the Nantahala Forest, beside the rushing waters of the Little Santeetlah Creek ...and then go back for hiking and views:)
This campground has 13 sites on the opposite side of the road from the lake, and several spots flanking Santeetlah. If you are a tent camper, my suggestion is go for the opposite side of the lake. I don't think you can even fit a camper into one of these spaces. The campground is a dead end with #13 at the very end, and no turn around past #10.
We arrived at the perfect hour of the day and had our pick of any site. We chose #12, for its privacy and the beautiful rushing water to sleep by and watch while sitting beside the fire and enjoying morning coffee. If you like camping with friends in adjoining campsites, it looked like #8 and #9 would be good to grab as they are closer together and have a little path that runs between them.
There are flushing toilets and sinks with cold running water, but no hot water and no showers. Just don't even think about using the bathroom facilities until you've selected your spot and paid for it. Elizabeth and John are the camp hosts and NOTHING gets by Elizabeth. Dogs are welcome, but should be leashed. There is a boat ramp with plenty of parking, maybe a mile past the campground, perfect for putting in kayaks and canoes. Bear proof trashcans are on site at Horse Cove, and usual Bear Precautions apply.
This is a great little tucked away haven and totally worth the $10 a night!

2010 West Point - Straight Story
It was a Straight Story indeed Thursday afternoon at Saratoga Race Course, as the even-money favorite took the 31st running of the $100,000 West Point for New York-breds.
Although he stumbled slightly out of the gate, Straight Story went right after pacesetter Spa City Fever, who led the field through opening fractions of 22.57 and 48.12. After rating in second through three-quarters in 1:12.37, Straight Story moved into the lead on the far turn and edged clear to win by a length.
His final time for the 1 1/8th miles over firm turf was 1:48.58.

Old Ridge Route Pt. 1 Up - let's go for a ride...into the past
The Old Ridge Route is a cool alternate route between Gorman and Lake Hughes.
The Ridge Route Highway is that section of road that winds over the San Gabriel and Tehachapi Mountains between Castaic Junction on the south.
Built 1913-1915 and paved in 1919, the Ridge Route was the first mountain highway built in California and carried traffic until 1933.
Considered an engineering marvel of its day, the road opened up travel and commerce between Los Angeles and the San Joaquin Valley and spawned a cottage industry of inns, gas stations and restaurants along its twists and curves.
