Thanks to a nice final push by Cindy while I was on vacay — and a few cat photos, I suppose — Huckleberries Online beat its previous record page-view count, set in 2010, by about 10,000 this year. The final county:2,605,110 page-views, 1,546,522 unique views. Equally important, Huckleberries enters 2013 with a record 10,810 readers (combination of blog, Twitter & Facebook). I appreciate all the support that you given this blog for almost 9 years. Huckleberries Online will be entering its 10th year of operation on Feb. 16. Meanwhile, I'm entering my 43rd year in the news business this new year. Where has the time gone?
