A Very Cold Winter Morning (cold for us, ya'll)


I'm posting some photos this morning before I leave town of some things I spied along my run. Yes, I went running in the frigid air and if nothing else it WOKE ME UP. I convinced myself that in Siberia perhaps this would be considered a mild day and people would picnic and take long strolls, so my taking a 30 minute run at 7am in 28 degree weather is well within the realm of what is humanly possible.

Work progresses on Beale Street Landing which looks like this today but will one day look like the rendering below.


The women on either side of the awning at Brinkley Plaza have always reminded me of winter. They look like frozen old women to me. A little scary actually.

Very nice photos! I think it's supposed to be 45 or so today though...no more cold :)

temperature is less an issue than its changes...switching from to 50 to 28 within days and getting back to 40 few days later requires constant physiological adjustments.
This makes it hard isn't it ?
(although I would be happy to enjoy few days of spring weather in the middle of a cold winter..)

Yes, it is tough going back and forth.
