a new computer at last

Well... After 2 total failures in the last year, my well-used laptop failed for the third and fatal time a month ago.  It has been replaced with a shiny new one that i hope will last for many years and NOT give me a convenient excuse (like its predecessor) for my failure to write and update the Gentle Hands website. I have a ton of pictures to upload, many stories to post and lots of video to edit and upload. i'll try to get as much done as i can in the coming weeks... cheers.
