Homeless....Sort'a

 The apartment I have arrangements to rent is not available till June 1st.
so each night my sleeping arrangements have been a little challenging.
 My 1st night was at the Kauai Beach resort, then
my boss let me rent a furnished condo for 2 nights,
then a Bishop invited me to camp at the Father and Sons outing 
(where I slept in my hammock)
  we learned to throw fishing nets into the ocean and played tug-o-war,
a 10x10 bungalow at the Anahata Sanctuary-A Spiritual B&B retreat
with "Like Minded People"
for a wk and then into the main part of the house at the retreat.

My Sleeping Temple....no, really that is what they call it.
 I wake up to sounds of rain dropping on the large Kalo Leaves,
a light breeze, geckos scurring around "laughing" and of course
the feral chickens, especially the wild rooster.

St. Regis Resort

Pretty sweet for my first employed JOB in 16 years!!
I love my job and the people I am working with.
I have been learning so much.
I feel like a secret agent with my uniform, head piece and radio on.
Compared to working construction plumbing my thoughts were,
"You call this working?"
At orientation I was being taught verbiage we are expected to use
Spectacular
Aloha
Enjoy Your Stay
We are expected to smile and make eye contact if in 10 ft.
and within 5 ft. say "Aloha" or "Good Morning"

What Do I Do To Celebrate Turning 50......?

 Get a job at a 5-Star Resort,
sell my things, give more away, spend time with my children and my sweet  Marley,
pack my few remains into the Snappy-mobil and park it at my sister's,
finish up last plumbing jobs and spend more time with my children and family.
So proud of these young men; Chad, Levi (me) Blake and Luke
Daughter-in-laws; Uni & Brithany

My baby girl Marley with her Papa

All that I am taking with me are in these 5 suitcases!
 I spend my last night on the "mainland" at my sister's home in Malad.
She drives to the SLC airport on May 13, 2014
where I board my flight at 11 am to Seattle, then to LA..... 
Told mom, "Feel like I am going on a mission again"
and then onto KAUAI, HAWAII!!!
Can't wait for visitors.
