35th Street Loop

After a nine-hour, 59-minute, 46-second drive from San Antonio to Levy, I ran the the 35th Street Loop in 37:51, with splits of 10:01, 9:15, 9:27, and 9:08. This was surprisingly easy, and it was a joy to have Jo walk with me half a block back to our house after I finished, and after she licked my legs.

Now, two hours after my run, at about 10 past midnight, I am digesting a 13-ounce pan-seared ribeye and deep-fat frying a pound of new potatoes and a large white onion. Sam, to my delight, sits in my lap, as Pam sleeps in the back bedroom.
