After my father passed away eleven years ago next month, we found this old watch of his. My wife had it cleaned up and a new strap put on it, and gave it to me for my birthday. Now as we begin this campaign, I'm going to try to remember to wear it every day. My dad was a Selectman and State Representative in Weston (MA) all through my childhood, serving the town for about thirty years. Somewhere I think he's probably smiling to watch me run for office for the first time. I hope his watch brings me luck.
