Yes, this is true. The RalCon blog turns three today and in order to celebrate, a theme of three will take over for the next few days. I’d invite all readers out for a beer but maybe I’ll save that move for when DTRaleigh hits a larger milestone.
Anyway, it all started as a hobby and I’m still keeping it going. I was the guy that hated English classes in school and now I write in my free time. What are the odds? I had hoped to have a special announcement for this day but it’s not quite ready yet. Everyone will have to wait.
For now, enjoy a blast from the past and look at the blog archived on October 15th, 2007. (via archive.org)

Happy 3rd Blogging Anniversary, Dear Raleigh Connoisseur!
And thank you for bringing interesting local information in this place. Always pleasure to read!
Congrats! I always look forward to the articles and pics.
Thank you for providing information to help keep the uninformed (like me)up to speed on what is happening in Raleigh. I see so many blogs about Raleigh start and stop. Keep up the great work.
Love your site. Keep up the good work.
My congratulations Leo on completing your 3rd year. I can really appreciate the dedication and time commitment associated with maintaining a blog. My best to you, and a thank you on behalf of all your readers for staying the course. Jim
Congratulations, Leo! And and all the best on your 3rd anniversary. The Raleigh Connoisseur was the first local blog I discovered on the internet — your post on the old Meredith College site — and look where that discovery has led me! ;-) Hey, why don’t I buy YOU a beer?!
Congratulations, and many more years :)
A well deserved milestone Leo. I read every article posted here, and I can’t think of many (if any) media sources/web sites that I can say the same for. I can only echo the words of others: “keep it up!”
Thank you everyone for the kind words. It’s feedback like this that keeps the blog going.
aw, (belated) congratulations, Leo! Keep on, keeping on: love the site!!
