Ran a quick cold 5 miler today. The temps have been in the low 20s at night and my bird bath stays frozen most of the day. It thaws enough for the birds to take a quick drink and then freezes again. My Pansies are in survival mode. The wind died down today so the wind chill wasn't bad. The run was great since the cold dictated the pace. I ran it in 46:48 at 9:21 per mile. That's fast for my 58 year old slightly overweight body. Took a picture of this bare Hickory Tree at Dickcissel Field. It always hosts Orchard Orioles, Blue Grosbeaks and Indigo Buntings in the Summer. The beauty of the cycle of life never fails to amaze me and never fails to warm the heart on a day like this.
