David, thanks for reporting all of the updates and "going ons" in Anacostia. You really blew up the blog spot, and I always checked you out. I think we're at a point where a lot has been learned, info shared, community galvanized, etc, due, in part, to your blog. Thanks!

I salute you for your faithful blogging that I'...

I salute you for your faithful blogging that I've enjoyed following off and on for the past three years, introducing me to a place I have never visited but to which now feel a connection.

Sorry to see another neighborhood blog retire (ahh, the glory days back in 2007!)

Very thankful that you're keeping it up as a resource, though, instead of deleting the whole thing!

David, so sad to read this, but glad that for all the risks, hope, and thoughtfulness you've inspired us with. :) I'll just have to find some new River East blogs to follow. My heart is full of good wishes for you.

Wow! You've done a fantastic job over the years. I'm certain that you have inspired many to move to River East, and in my case, MOVE BACK to my home after a 1 year sabbatical.

Thanks for all you've done and hope to still hear from you from time to time!

Wow so it has come to this. The old it is not you it's me line. Well, you definitely sparked the blog fire East of the River.

Your blog is definitely a resource has helped paint a Anacostia in a different hue.

Ur perspective will be missed.

This is why I love David Garber and his cotton boll belt. :) You have done great work and if I can even do 1/4 of what you have done to bring positive attention to Anacostia and Ward 8 I am one lucky blogger and community "advoc8te."

This is so funny that you wrote this because I have been working on a post for today that kind of touches on this. Will post it then cross post to yours.

If you are retiring does this mean that you get a gold mouse or something? :)
