Back in Action!

Well, I write this from my new computer!  I have finally solved my computing difficulties.  I tried very hard to salvage my old machine, but after much hassle, my efforts proved to be of no avail.  Alas.  Despite my efforts to wring a few additional years of life out of the old machine, I have accepted that its time has come.  And now I am thrilled to welcome my new addition.  Yes folks, I did it; I crossed the line into Mac world...  So far, I'm thrilled with it.  :)  But the real news is, with a return to steady access to a reliable computer and to the internet, I will be able to post more regularly, and look forward to doing so.  There are also a ton of photos that I have been wanting to upload, and will now do so.  

YAY for a new computer!
