And I voted for the first time ever today. Its Tuesday and our Georgia Primaries. Check out my sticker I got. Nervous and excited i was, for all my life I have listened and listened to a very political family discuss very political things. As much as I tried to drown their voices out, I always followed what was up in our local and national governments and began to get that "Rhoden" desire to do your country a service by voting. I went to the Byron City Hall, ran into a few old townsfolk I recognized (I love living in a small town) went to the cool little computer and bypassed a bunch of random names of people I don't know anything about (I'm determined not to vote ignorantly). Then I found the one name I was looking for, Mike Keown. His name is outside on the lawn. When my Dad and I take Macey on walks, he takes a handful of magnets/brochures/posters of this gentleman and walks up to any neighbors he might see (or not see)and gives them a shpill of what this man's views. Because of listening to the same lecture and reading all the left over info from my Dad, I felt like it would be wise to cast my vote and make a difference in Georgia.
