It's been ages since we've blogged...partly because our camera got stolen ...and our 7-year old iMac was creaking along with limited memory ...and we had visitors ... and we took a 4-week trip to Africa! But, we're back now with a new camera and a new computer, so we're ready to go. We got the new iMac and we're loving it!!! We'll try to post about the different parts of our trip over the next few days. So here's a teaser:
