Orange Street Loop

An elderly Christian woman, who four years ago handed me a pamphlet of Bible verses and advice, complained about the weather from her porch as I walked by on Maple Street. "It's hard to believe it was 70 degrees two days ago," I said.

"Well, that's one thang about Arkansas. If you don't lack the weather, stick around, 'cause it'll sure'nuff change."

I am not sure, but suspect people from each of the continental states say that.

"That's correct," I said.

It was 39, with light rain and a windchill of 32, as I walked the Orange Street Loop in 41:22 (a 6:01:32 marathon pace).
