We’re back home after 22 days on the road. We had a great trip with lots of very good memories and arrived home at about 9:30 p.m. last night and fell into bed. It was a very long day.

We arrived in Barcelona on Sunday, November 16th. On Monday, November 17th the home computer network went down and stayed down for the rest of the time we were gone. There was nothing I could do about it, so this blog and several others have been offline for the past three weeks. The firewall connecting the home network to the internet was the culprit. I’ve put in a new firewall and now all the outbound stuff is working. Since the firewall has a different hardware address, I’ve got to wait for CableOne to reassign my correct Internet Protocol address. Until that’s done, the web site cannot be reached using it’s name. So, if you’re reading this, everything is back to normal. I’ll talk about the trip in the next posts.
