Angels Camp, CA...July 6th, 1968 to July 6th, 2018! 50 year anniversary! My gosh, we did it! Vicki Hughes-McFall first started working with flowers shortly after graduating from Campbell High School in the summer of 1966. Ron McFall remembers that Vicki was very creative and had a natural eye for color, which she credits getting from her mother Iva Hughes. Ron and Vicki, who grew up as neighbors and became high school sweet hearts, were married in 1968 as Ron pursued his law enforcement career with the San Jose Police Department and Vicki continued working in the floral industry with larger floral shops in the San Jose area. Before too long, Vicki found herself regularly making floral arrangements for her church, as well as being asked by a number of friends and relatives to do their wedding flowers.

San Francisco, CA...In an effort to help prevent wildfires and protect communities, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) is joining forces with local Fire Safe Councils to enhance the safety and preparedness of local communities. PG&E is providing $2 million to fund local Fire Safe Council projects to reduce the threat of wildfires and help keep communities safe. "Years of drought, extreme heat and 129 million dead trees are creating a 'new normal' in our state and we must continue to adapt to these challenges. We appreciate our continuing partnership with local Fire Safe Councils to complete this important safety work. These projects create fuel breaks to protect communities, clear vegetation from evacuation routes, and help underserved customers create critical defensible space to protect their homes from fire," said Kevin Dasso, PG&E vice president of Electric Asset Management.
