Measure twice

When I started my campaign for county commissioner I gave up my writing and banjo playing and I miss them both.  Win, lose or draw I will be back in November with a regular column in this space – but for now this will have to do.
Today I was going door-to-door handing out brochures hoping people would read them and vote for me.  One older fellow was sitting in the shade of his garage on a lawn chair.  As I walked up the driveway I said “Hello.” He returned my greeting and I handed him my brochure.  I noticed he was holding a tape measure in his hand.  What struck me was the tape was extended out some. What was he measuring I wondered - the hours, the days or just time?
Make good use of your time today. Click my Facebook page link on this page for more information on the campaign and remember to vote for me in the primary Tuesday, Aug 14th
Have a good day.
