Many lives and homes were lost, many properties gone, and still many towns are still submerged in the water.

I hope it rains! That’s all I could think of after reading the latest news of the California wildfire that’s eating up north of Los Angeles that has already destroyed several homes, killed two firemen and threatening more than 12,000 homes.
