A close finish this month by our FeedBurner analysis.

Visits (53,704) and pageviews (118068), only a little bit down from April. Total number of posts in May 52, which was a slow down from April (85) and March (102), because I’ve used April and March to catch up considerably with our backlog of posts.

Thank you all for your visits and see you back in June!
