He stands up for his values and convictions and holds true to his morals, or as I like to call it "virtue". &nbsp;He doesn't let money, status or power influence his ideas. &nbsp;Yes, he may have alienated a few friends throughout the course of this election year, but I am sure to bet that he sleeps well at night. &nbsp;He has made it quite clear to all of his Facebook "friends"; that if they are Trump supporters -- he wants nothing to do with them. &nbsp;<br /><br />In any other election year, I would tell him he has gone too far and that he doesn't need to burn bridges or destroy long standing friendships &nbsp;That he doesn't need to impose his values as more righteous. &nbsp;In any other election year, I am sure we would all be happy &nbsp;to say, "Let the best man win!"<br /><br />But this is not any other election year because we have a demagogue running for president (or as Tom likes to call him, a fascist). &nbsp;There is by no means a best man running in this election, there is only a best woman. &nbsp;The only man in this election is the worst man imaginable. &nbsp;He is a disgrace to our country, and a threat to world peace and the longevity of this planet.</div> <hr style="width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden;"></hr>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the Bird Girl]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.susandrey.com/blog/its-the-bird-girl]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.susandrey.com/blog/its-the-bird-girl#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Wed, 19 Oct 2016 00:15:35 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.susandrey.com/blog/its-the-bird-girl</guid><description><![CDATA[ 	 		 			 				 					 						          					 								 					 						  That is what the second mountain biker who passed me on the trail said.I was stunned and then he said "I am pretty sure I am your neighbor", and then it hit me -- he had seen my birds and cage up in the window. &nbsp;"Yes, why yes, I am the "bird girl" I let out with a big loud laugh. &nbsp;Yes that is me." &nbsp;I do meet so many wonderful people on the trail that runs through the strip of Black Hills that meanders through this a [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><div class="wsite-multicol"><div class="wsite-multicol-table-wrap" style="margin:0 -15px;"> 	<table class="wsite-multicol-table"> 		<tbody class="wsite-multicol-tbody"> 			<tr class="wsite-multicol-tr"> 				<td class="wsite-multicol-col" style="width:24.444444444444%;
