Hardly anybody in Greenland reads the Update.....
It’s neat to look at the Google Analytics map & see that readers all over the world read the San Juan Update…the darker green countries all have Update readers in them, in the last month.
Would you mind letting me know where YOU are? Just hit the “comment” link at the bottom of this posting & you can drop a note where you are. It’ll be good to hear from you!!!

I live in FH but find myself in England now visiting family. I check your site every day so i don’t miss home so much. Thanks Ian, your site is the best
Ian: We are part time Friday Harbor residents, about three months a year. The rest of the time in Arlington, VA. We love reading Update — every day == to keep informed of the important happenings in the San Juans. Thanks much for your work.
Hi. From Massachusetts. Looking forward to visiting and maybe moving there someday.
Heya Ian! I’ll be back up on the island over both the 4th of July weekend (2nd, 3rd and 4th) and the Labor Day weekend (Sept 4th, 5th and 6th)strumming the Jimmy Buffett songs at Roche. Hope to run into you again.

Hey Ian,
Cheers from Denver, CO! My wife and I come to San Juan every year and we read your Update daily! We may be new full-time residents of San Juan before the end of the year! Keep up the good work!
Hi Ian, read you every morning with my coffee from Paris. Keep it up as it keeps me connected to “home”.
Ian, I check your website every day from San Diego. Lived in Friday Harbor for 9 years and miss it!
Hey Ian, it’s been great checking in on the island from New Zealand. I’ve been here since January and I’m going to be here until December.

We’re in Andorra. Come visit us!
Hi Ian!
I’m here in Albania and checking in with you as often as possible. I always look forward to hearing about what is happening on the islands…even the politics!
Thanks for keeping us Expats informed!

Hi Ian,
Once were islanders now living in Melbourne Australia, but check your site to see how life on the island is going and what are friends are up to.

Hey Ian,
I’ve been reading for years from Sebastopol, California, where I live. Right now, however, I am reading from Fairbanks, Alaska, while I’m attending a conference, and for two months every year, I am reading from the Patagonian region in southwest Argentina, where I do biological field work. So, by myself, I read from north to south! and enjoy it greatly!
Thanks, Julie
Hi Ian,
I never knew you but I lived in on the west side of San Juan Island for many years, I worked at the Sandpebble with the other two Susans, and now I am in Hawaii!
Love your updates especially how we all look a few years on!
Aloha Susan

Hi..I live in NYC , in the heart of Manhattan but am fortunate enough to have spent the last several summers in wonderful Friday Harbor. I’ll be coming again on July 1st, for 2 months and really love the Update for keeping connected . It all began at Mar Vista. Thanks, jean
Just a friendly hello from here in Spokane. The Update has become a daily read for me. Keep up the great work, Ian!
Hey! Thanks for writing! The US is black because it has the most hits…thanks all.
Do you have many Canadians besides me? I use your daily quotes in my classroom each day. Where do you get them? I am teaching summer school this year.
I’m in Scotland, but you knew that, because I wrote to you looking for whale information last year. Thanks for your help. It is fun to read your news, and I hope to come to your island from my island next year or so. Maybe we can watch the World Cup while I am there.
Reading you in Moscow. Love the Update! When are you going to do a Russian version?
Reporting in from Georgia. The United States is one of the countries on the map. Why is it black?
Does it count that I’m travelling in India and Malaysia & checked your newspaper Monday & tonight?
Hey, Ian! Remember me?
I met you in Milwaukee when you worked for the population group back in 2001. I’ve been hoping to move to San Juan or Orcas since then, and read the Update every day with the other news that I check. I live in Buenos Aires now, but will come to visit the islands this summer in November or December. Thanks for what you do! Love all the pictures! Saludos, A
