A wrap up of 2012

A wrap up?  For me, 2012 has been a significant year.

Jamie moved into my house.  She and I have been roommates for nearly a year now and things have been issue free.

I finally got my hands in investment real estate.  I am now renting property and have been trying to get some more properties together.  It is a means to an end and will hopefully get me out of the jobby job.

I took a short notice trip to Spain to visit a long time friend, Pari.  It was a great time and I was very lucky that she and her family made room for me while I was there.

The grind in the summer at the jobby job was long but I capped it off with a trip back to Maine to see family.  It was much needed as there were some significant issues happening in my life at the time.

Shortly after returning from Maine, one of my best friends came to visit.  Laura was back in Atlanta, she and I moved here together back in 2004.  She now lives in Los Angels and I do not get to see her much.

Late fall I took another trip, albeit shorter.  This time, Ashley and I returned to the Great Smokey Mountains National Park.  We missed the foliage by a week but it was still a great trip with several bear sitings!

I has been an eventful year of food, adventures, and milestones.  Below is a brief photo history of the year from my eyes.
