Visit no. 250,000 to this blog occurred while I was out grocery shopping, just after 5 this evening. It was an East Coast visitor, who popped in to our Family archive page. The visit was about 40 days since visit no. 225,000.

From here on out, we'll pat ourselves on the back for traffic volume only as we reach 50,000-visit milestones (the next one sometime in March, I suspect, but you never know). Thanks to everyone who comes by here, and sends others this way.
