Topic:  Weekend Measurement

Question:  How did you use measurement over the weekend?

EXAMPLE:  I used measurement when I drove to Valentine, NE because I saw signs that told me how many miles I had to drive.  I also used temperature because it was much colder (50 degrees F) than I thought it would be on Saturday night, so I had to change into warmer clothes.
