Sadly many of these people where those I followed or added over the years for a love of travel and the open road. I know people are entitled to their opinions, but when all you hear and see is opinions those opinions begin not to matter. #nopoliticsplease

In the 7 years I’ve had this account I’ve never added any political organizations, news, politicians, or political parties. Today though I found myself bombarded by politics from all sides, leading me to delete many of those I followed or had follow me.

I’ll admit I haven’t been as attentive to this Twitter account as I should be. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, yet am, that there have been so many political tweets and retweet’s in my feed.
