Around the Apartments

     It is the latter part of July and we are getting monsoons that remind me of when I first got here 42 years ago. Yesterday we had a 1/2 hour rain about 1800 hrs (6 PM) and another hard rain (about an hour's worth) around 2000-2200 (8-10 PM) and again a rain about 0300 (3 AM).
    Yesterday (here at the Apartment complex) we had a Luau with food furnished by the managers, et al and some oldies music and Karaoke ... and we all had a pretty good time.

Me and Hilda in our south seas (Hawaiian) attire.
I am in shorts, but they don't show in the picture,

they look like slacks.

Getting some food

     Today we have a going away party for a lady that is moving to Phoenix (WHY Phoenix ??? ... I have no idea!). Before that we may play some Wii bowling with Norma and Jay. Last evening we watched a movie that got really panned by the critics ... 'John Carter of Mars' ... , but we found it very entertaining. we then started watching a movie called 'Chronicle' but had trouble with our old DVD player. It is about 12 years old. Today, I bought a new one ... about $40... (and half the size of the old one). We will continue watching that movie, among others, today. I would imagine that we have run thousands of movies through the old DVD player in the last 12 years or more.
