  • 2020’s greatest hits

    Every year at this time I look back at the year’s most popular posts and review my stats. I started doing this because I figured, who’s reading my blog on New Year’s Eve anyway? Then it turned out to be a nice way to reconnect you with my favorite posts from the year, which never…

  • 2016’s greatest hits

    It’s my year-end tradition to highlight the year’s posts that were most read, commented, and liked. Thank you for being a part of the Down the Road community this year! I couldn’t have imagined when I started this blog how much I would come to enjoy interacting with you. Can I ask you to take…

  • 2015’s greatest hits

    It’s my year-end tradition to highlight the year’s posts that were most read, commented, and liked. But first, some reflections on the year.

    It’s my year-end tradition to highlight the year’s posts that were most read, commented, and liked. But this year, I’d like to start with my five favorite posts from 2013. This blog is mostly about my hobbies, primarily photography and trips along old roads. But sometimes I write more serious posts about my life experiences…

  • 2012’s greatest hits

    As 2012 sails across the finish line, it’s time to look back at the last twelve months of Down the Road. Readership steadily increased this year, thanks to a base built on readership surges when three of my posts were Freshly Pressed in 2010 and 2011. Nothing I wrote this year tickled the Freshly Pressed editors’ fancy,…

  • 2011’s greatest hits

    As 2011 makes its final bow, it’s time to look back at the last twelve months of Down the Road. I was extremely fortunate that WordPress.com featured two of my posts on its daily Freshly Pressed feature early in the year, bringing a surge of visits and netting a few new regular readers. But then I…
