My Top 25 of 2011

Xmas has come and gone, surprisingly without snow. Before the year is over, it's hard not to look back at what  has been and look forward to what might be.
One nice thing about having an actual calendar on the wall is you write things on it; things that can be fun to flip back to at times like these when the whole year seems like a blur. So besides enjoying good health, good friends and good times, here's my top 25 things of 2011:
