There’s this oddly tender thing about trying to measure something… like how long is 300 feet, especially when your mind keeps slipping into memories instead of math.

Yet somehow, everywhere you look, things are made in … Read more
Sometimes, thinkin’ about measurements makes ya feel like you’re in one of those old school classrooms, tryin’ to remember if a foot is 12 inches or if a yard’s longer than your arm.
