home from the homecoming

We're home from Devon and Cornwall. It'll take us a little time to sort out things here. I've also come home to receive information that my mother has been in hospital with serious knee problems, while my parents were away on holiday, in another part of Australia from where they live. I'll be phoning her once timezones are in alignment. (You know, just like planets, only without the soothsayers.)

Somewhere around all that, I'll blogging about our family history field trip. Despite toting my laptop with me to download photos, I only managed to draft a blog entry for one day. We never found an open wifi network to upload that one and I was too tired by the evening for the rest of the week to blog anyway. Despite that, once they are written I'll shamelessly upload other entries under the days in which the events they describe occurred, rather than the date when I actually wrote them. That means that as they are uploaded over the next day, they'll appear below this entry... It's the blogging equivalent of continuing writing in an exam, well after the “pencils down”.
