Happy New Year, Dan!
And to you too!
I suggest you add survivable to your list of hopes for the new year. Each passing tweet underscores that as a priority.
Amen.
Happy New Year
TONI and STEVE

Happy New Year, Dan! This year I’d like to encourage everyone to take a good look at that beautiful blue planet you have pictured and do all they can to protect and save it, as we now live in truly imperiled times. Mother Earth needs our help.
Thanks for all you do to help our town, and our planet, Amy!
Happy New Year All!
And to you too, Mary!

Happy New Year Dan!
I’m pretty new here and just following your blog since last year (yeah, 2016 is now last year), it’s a fantastic blog. I’ve learned so much about Westport through your blog and I’m looking for much more to come. Thank you!
Thanks, Jens, and welcome to Westport. If you’ve ever got any good story ideas, please send ’em along!
Happy New Year, Dan. Good job and thanks for bringing up topics and often taking a hit for the team.
Starting the new year mellow and have no snippy comments, altho….
Thanks, Stephanie. We’re all in this together!

Happy New Year. Dan I enjoy your blog and read it almost every day. Don’t always agree with the comments, but we all have the right to our opinions. Please keep it up during 2017. I have learned and remembered a lot from you.
Thank you, Helen. I’ve learned a lot from my readers too. The door swings both ways!
All the best Dan. Love your insightful look at things and how deftly you manipulate your willing followers. Fun😂
