Oh wow found out what happend. Tomcat created the conf/Tomcat-Standalone/parks.com/.xml due to my earlier server.xml changes I just went back in to my conf dir and deleted the Tomcat-Standalone directory and then proceed to restart tomcat. guess what that worked. Could that be a bug? or is that by design?
Thanks Yoav for showing me the better way of pathing.

An alternative might be appBase="/home/parks/htdocs" docBase=".". But I prefer my first suggestion.
