Most of 2012 is past, and some memories and pictures remain.
The year began with a January trip to Denver for the Memorial Service for Fran Yehle, Judy's brother's wife. Peggy, Doug, Ellie, Steven and I all attended.
March 23 – April 24, I took an extended trip to Florida for a baseball Elderhostel with the Red Sox and Twins in Fort Myers. It also included a visit there with Jim Bohn, a first cousin.
