Day 191, "Every picture has a story"
This was our rain gauge after 2 days of late afternoon rain.  Last night I am guessing we got at least 3 inches.  Today we got a light sprinkle.  Even with all that rain the tennis courts were good to go this morning!

I have spent most of the last 3 days on the computer.  Terry and I have wanted to take in our last 3 national parks for the last 3 or 4 years.  Now one can say why the delay?  The story is a person has to be ready to travel and that has been difficult for us these last 3 years and also 2 of parks happen to be in Hawaii and the third is in American Samoa.  Now one does not just hop on the plane and go to those places.  Well one can do the Hawaii trip fine but American Samoa is a different story.  It is a 5+ hour trip from Honolulu and the airline only goes there twice a week.  Well after 3 days of searching and searching and being frustrated on the computer I have the plane tickets, the rental car and places to stay for the time.  We will take in the 2 parks on the Hawaii Islands as we travel around the islands on a cruise ship.  It should be a fun 2 weeks that will start June 30 and end July 13.  I made reservations on AirBnB today.  A first for me.  We will see how it works out.  I was even able to put an AirBnB app on my phone and then use that to take a picture of my ID for the AirBnB.  Maybe, just maybe, this old guy still can do a few things!

No here it is late at night, for me, so will sign off.  As always, that wonderful FP got me off to a good start this morning.
