Thanks so much to John Higginbotham for tech support, and Phil Wagner for helping to expedite the repair process as the entire slideshow managed to explode. It's working now. I do believe in miracles!!
The embedded slideshow looks disproportionate on the blog, so click the link below to view it. Pause button is on the left--I recommend you use it for ease of viewing.
Enjoy! Have a great weekend--I'm going to spend it at home, celebrating my birthday. :D
