Frozen in Place

There is a first time for everything. This morning the world was frozen. The sweater for the dog has frozen from his playing in the snow. I discovered the distance to Bardstpwn is a few miles further than I thought. Wearing the big yellow "duck boots" cuts down my speed. On my best days twenty miles requires that I would need to start early and walk into the night. I am old, the world has it's pace over the bumps and brambles, that is the best I can do... On my best day. The canvas planet and every thing is frozen. This has not happened before, I can only wait for sunshine and warmth. Today is a good day to wait for sunshine and warmth. Perhaps a Chang of plans... Darn that spell check...
The world can only bear so much abuse.

This is not my best day for walking twenty miles.
