Giovanni & Scampi at the printer
See, I told you we were at print. We are hoping that this book will do as well as "Wailoa & Kukui." I guess I'll still be counting on my LT's to keep pulling us through. A word about where I'm located. A rather nondescript place, but that of course is it's charm...

Today I was more than tired, I was fried. 'Lani sent me home. I slept soundly until she called to say that a couple of LT's(Lovely Tourists) were not leaving until I came and personally endorsed a book for them. They were happy with the autographed copy and a picture we took together. They are LT's, Adam and Akemi from Colombus, Ohio. The book is for their unborn baby. They look lovely.

A Lesson In Honesty From "My Lovely Tourists"
Sometimes I do get "My Lovely Tourists" pictures. This is Scott & Karen Klassen with their sons. On Saturday April 10,2010 they stopped by and purchased two of the Wailoa & Kukui books. We chatted awhile, took this photo and then we bid them goodbye.
In less than 20 min. Karen reappeared and apologized for not paying for the books. 'Lani & I were quite chagrined in that we had not realized it ourselves.
They are from Calgary-Alberta, Canada. They are good honest people. They have our utmost gratitude, not so much for the money but for lesson they left us. I want to be like them.
Thank you Klassen Family, You are My Lovely Tourists.

Some mornings I'm just too tired to set the tent up one more time. This was one of those mornings. Actually I started out with a whole lot of vim and vigor, but after driving four iron stakes deep enough and pushing the legs of the tent up, I was already out of gas. It didn't used to be like that...What happened? (You don't have to answer that)
My second story is at the printers and is expected to be here sometime in May. It is entitled Giovanni & Scampi the Shrimp. I have used the same illustrator for this story as well.
