Happy 2012 everyone - hope your festivities were enjoyable and safe. We are clearing out the backlog of photos from the last half of 2011. So here goes nothing!!
We again spent a week at Campers Paradise in central Minnesota. This year the weather was perfect, as these happy campers can attest!

A maze of twisty narrow passages, all alike.
In October, Lisa and I escaped to Las Vegas - I had a conference and we went out a few days early. We took a hike in the hills north of town.
The sun falls behind the rocks.
