Frustrated Dennis with modern technology

Geri and I have been struggling at creating a pictorial blog now for over 2 days.  It is incredibly frustrating.  We can't seem to be able to download photos from our camera to the blog, even though we have been told it can be done.  Geri has actually been successful at downloading 2 pictures from the phone, but then she can't repeat the process!  We are getting close to smashing all the electronic equipment in the house!!!  The rainy weather is delaying the start of our trip and allowing us to continue our battle with modern technology.  We have 2 days left to figure this out if we are going to be able to share our trip through a blog the way we want to.  Friday morning is the deadline.  Our big bike trip begins then whether we have a blog or not!
