Hi.... Even though I'm spending some days here in sunny Arizona, I still miss the home town news. But not any more.... because it's so easy to check my E-mail and then the Internet. Your news stories along with the photos are great. Thanks for bringing the Lincoln and Logan County news to me anywhere I go in this land. See you soon!

The traveling Ambassador,

Dear Editor:

Just wanted to say I'm enjoying your web site. I'm originally from Lincoln, and I moved away in 1982. So it's great to be able to look at the news from your site. I check it every day.

Thanks again.

Lincoln Daily News was a great idea put into action. What a great opportunity for local businesses to do some advertising and get your name out there on-line!! As a Marketing/Sales individual, I am always looking for new ways to reach area businesses and offer information about our business, so thanks for the link! Keep up the great work and congratulations on your continued success.

Dean and I are pleased to see the Lincoln Daily News online! (We've been reading one of the neighboring papers on line just to try and see what all is going on back home.) We are in Northern Michigan and have been for 14 years; but want to keep up to date. Our family back home shares some...but it is good to read it right from the paper.

Thanks. We will be passing this information along to others of our family who are away from Lincoln.

God bless all you back home.

Bonnie & Dean Sanders

 

This is Bonnie & Dean Sanders writing again...I forgot to add that our e mail address is SAN3DB@aol.com for anyone who may want to get in touch.

Thanks...

Roger and I have been on vacation for just a week, but we're constantly bugging the Lincoln kids with, "What's new?" Daughter Beth today told me about the Lincoln Daily News. What a great idea! I've just read my first edition, and will look forward to checking in frequently. Thanks!
