Red Loop

 I walked the Red Loop this morning in 35:43. ...Late this afternoon, I drove by Red's house on a way I often take at rush hour. Red's roommate Helen was outside with her somewhat tiny bulldog-looking dog, and I slowed to ask her how Red was doing. She told me Red (known to her as Sammy) has started to slow down with her age, 14, and does not go out very often anymore.
