If you were among the 100 or so folks who made it to Compo for yesterday evening’s 4th annual “06880” blog party: thanks!
It was a wonderful evening: fun, relaxed, beautiful, filled with very cool people, very good food, and very great weather.
If you could not join us, here’s the next best thing.
PS: We hope to see you there next year!

Bart Shuldman brought a pair of dueling beverages: Trump Tonic (“Make America grape again”) and Hillary Hooch (“classified flavor”).

“06880” party-goers had the best tables, the best views — and the best time — at Compo last night.

Musician Warren Bloom (harmonica, guitar) and artist Miggs Burroughs (painting, photography, graphic design) compared their awesome heads of hair.

Honoring the party with “06880” hats — well, 3 of the 4, anyway.

State Representative Gail Lavielle was in the house. (Get it?)

Happy together.

Longtime Compo lover Mike Calise enjoys the beach, just the way it is.

A breeze played havoc with the “06880” balloons, provided by Jennifer Hershey and Mary Hoffman. But the sunset was as spectacular as always.

GREAT PARTY, Dan! Wonderful to see old friends (Mike & Sally, Miggs) and meet new – all happy, interesting & fun. You’re super to arrange all this, even the weather & ambiance. Following your blog has added spice to my life. Thanks!
Thank YOU, Bonnie, for making the long trip here. I loved chatting — and seeing all your great memorabilia. I’m glad you’re part of the “06880” community!
Such fun, and I’m eyeing those 06880 visors! Can I purchase one, Dan? Bring a few to our August reunion? LOVE your blog and our lifelong connection!!
Thanks, Kim, and right back at ya! I have no idea where those visors come from. Anyone know?!
As always, we managed to land a P&Z meeting right on top of the annual 06880 event – so sorry to have missed it (again), hope to get to it next year. Thanks again for all you do for our local community Dan.
Beautiful evening, great location, interesting people, old friends and good conversations, thanks very much Dan! Often wonder how many important things in town might just slide by without you.
My drink would be a bottle of Bernie: “Craft Beer Revolution”
Cheers!
LOL! Good one Nancy 😎
06880 visors and caps are from Westport Historical Society, 25 Avery Place.
Thank you, Jay!
Great fun! Fabulous weather. Good conversation. Who could ask for anything more. Thanks Dan.
