York Gary Loop/Nashville/York Gary Loop

NASHVILLE—Thanks to a patient AT&T employee in Arizona, named James, my mother's house now has wireless.

Last night, through very cold air and windblown snow, I jogged and walked the York Gary Loop in 24:13. This morning it was 22 degrees and I walked for 46:14—a little over three miles—through the neighborhoods of southwest Nashville.

And then, starting at about 6 p.m. Central, I walked the York Gary Loop in 27:55. It was 32 degrees Fahrenheit, which felt warm.
