Lucy Says Vote


 


Life on Newark-Granville Road- we put a yard sign in our yard.

We put this sign up to:

-make sure people that go by know our darling pup's name- Lucy.  She really is nicer and does not bark as much when you use her name. Hmmm, life lesson.

We love hearing stories about how folks do engage with her. COVID home time allows us to witness the engagement. THANK YOU to the mailman that sits down with her, rubs her belly and gives her treats. SORRY amazon driver that can't get out of the van-appreciate your calls.

-encourage an activity we feel strongly about- voting! https://www.boe.ohio.gov/licking/  In our area- here is where you can find the ballot to be a prepared voter, voter registration- OCT 5 deadline and so much more.  You can even track your absentee ballot application!  Note from here- check out this site: https://www.vote411.org/ and do it now, please!  Proud to say Peter sent for his ballot in August- shortly after moving in at Wabash.  

We'll take this moment to share that we don't put many yard signs in our yard. If we know the person running well we may place a sign.  If we're working on an issue we'll put a sign.  It is unfortunate how not-positive this all can be and is another reason we place a picture of sweet lucy on a yard sign! We hope people will respect differing opinions and value freedom of speech in our beautiful country.  It is not perfect and there are problems. Our freedoms allow us to continue to be inspired, to say thank you to all that care and work and run and lead.  Voting is a key component of these freedoms.

There is so much more I could say about politics on Sept 26, 2020, but I won't.  I will talk about it carefully when there is a good time to do so.  I am glad when people do talk and share and we listen and value the differences.  It isn't easy to do that.  

Life on NG Road loves Lucy and those that love her too.  And we truly do hope you will vote this year.
