Project 365 Day 252: Precise Measures

Don't let the pretty print fool you. Although this may look like a flower-child piglet that just left Woodstock circa 1970, it is in fact a tape measure. And for the record, this tape measure is not normally found in any of my three toolboxes (yes, I am that manly).

We were putting some more plants in the ground this afternoon that we got from cousin Deb yesterday, and we wanted to make sure the hole we dug was wide and deep enough. I asked Amy to go to the garage and get a tape measure while I was on shovel duty, and this was the one she came back with.

It got the job done, though. An inch is an inch after all. I just prefer a more well-known pedigree in measuring tools, like Stanley or Ace Hardware!
