I have birding friends who extend to both extremes of the political spectrum, and I have VERY strong opinions as well. So, I just don't discuss politics, especially on social media. Sometimes thinking about the current state of affairs almost makes me want to cry. I suspect that you and I would likely agree on more than one area of personal philosophy. (Don't disillusion me!) And I love your blog. Someone once asked me why I don't carry a concealed weapon when I travel, since I'm a woman traveling alone. The reason is that what we see on TV is such a distorted view of what people are really like that I don't think it's necessary (which is why I don't have a TV). As you continue to point out in your blog, there are some really interesting, kind and generous folks out there. Take care of yourself, including that knee. Folks like me are traveling vicariously with you, and we want to complete the journey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
