I can never get enough of this view. A photo does not do it Justice. It is so much more breath-taking in person.

i'm asking everyone i know to please share and ask your friends and family to re-share this i know so many others are loosing everything to fire and i'm trying real hard to count my blessings but i feel the end is near and it can't get any worse it can only get better from here.I feel I need to explain my situation to have this is not what I wanted I am truly a Broken Man in early 2007 my wife and I were first time home buyers and did not know much about the process and like many other people back then we were preyed upon by everyone in the process of purchasing our first home we were victims of a predatory loan that put our mortgage so upside down it seemed we would never be able to to recover we had the opportunity to be part of a class action lawsuit against our lender but we chose not to go that route we chose to try and work with our lender and work things out and keep our home and by the grace of God and the help of family we've been able to hold onto it until now with the birth of our daughter three and a half years ago who was diagnosed with autism at 17 months my wife had to quit her 12-year career at the Vallejo Courthouse to be a full-time caregiver for our daughter so we lost my wife's income uncontrollably and as many of you know I run a lawn care service here in Northern California for the past 30 years and have thrived at it but with the drought being so severe here in Northern California it practically decimated my business I lost almost 80% of my monthly income and none of my customers who canceled my service we're willing to come back on service when the rain started needless to say we fell behind in our mortgage payments we had to go on welfare and food stamps for the first time in my life and it was humiliating to say the least but the worst part is now the bank wants to take my house and sell it at auction for less than I owe when my house is actually worth more than I owe and they're not allowing me the time to put it on the market and find a buyer so that my family will have the to resources to find another place to live the hardest part for myself is that it's the only home my children have ever known and for the past 15 years I've been a proud father and husband and homeowner in the town that I grew up in but the day the for sale sign went up in front of my house was the worst day of my life and every day since has been even harder and like I said before putting my personal problems on social media is not the way I usually do things it's not the kind of person that I am but it is what it is and the way I see it things really can't get any worse thank you to all who take the time to read this at least you know the truth!

This amazing family is about to lose their home of twevle years. Due to unfortunate circumstances, with there being a drought there was no work. These amazing people who always help others in need are in need of help as to not loose their family home where they raise their beautiful daughters.
