I’m back!

What has been happening?  Lots, some nice some not.  Back in early April, I discovered that my web-page had been hacked and the host had shut it down—for the second time in five months, I might add.  It would have been nice of the host to tell me, since I pay plenty for the service.  My webmaster needed a few days to get everything put back together again, and meanwhile Janet and I left on an extended vacation, a three-week cruise from Florida, through the Panama Canal, and back here to Victoria, BC.  We disembarked just yesterday, and certainly we had the holiday of a lifetime.  Even when I wasn’t eating, drinking, or touristing, I couldn’t do any posting, because I was struggling with both satellite internet (which is about equivalent to a 1990′s dial-up, only much more pricey) and an i-Pad, which has some good features but is a three-legged mule when it comes to the internet.  So now I am back in the real world.  I apologize for the long silence, and will try to do better in future.
