thanks Cutter....I had a great 2011 "hobbywise" (Kandi, Helena, Tonka, Sharla, a special lady in TO, etc...not to mention my first trip to Costa Rica) so will be hard to beat it in 2012---but off for return visit to CR in 4 weeks--so I'm at least going to try!
Happy New year!
As for the hobby scene - I personally did a lot more MP's than SP's - don't know why it just seemed to work out that way in 2011 - perhaps 2012 will be different
Happy New Year to you too Cutterbuck and to all of the other truly wonderful people I have had the absolute pleasure spending time with this past year.
