I must have a lot to do this year, because poof! here it is January 18th already and I haven't made time for a year in review post.  So.  Here it is...  
 For a lot of the year I posted solely to Facebook, and they have a great 2013 in review page.  Nice to see all that...  the pictures they picked for the page header are great choices; visiting Tuscany, seeing the Stones with Alex, visiting Ireland, and ... me, driving!
