There have been a lot of popular posts on our blog. The most popular post was just a quick one Walt did about midday in West Point, Iowa. It had our biggest number of views in one day (220) and has the most views all time (251). We were surprised at how many people reminisced about it.
We’ve had a few other posts that turn up again and again in the views of the blog. Many of them are family history posts, especially the ones about West Point, as we cross post on Facebook to the West Point, Iowa Friends and Memories group.
