It’s been a while since I’ve taken early morning walks in the cold.
Not since living in Tucson a decade ago do I recall walking with gloves and hat on when the temperatures were at the freezing mark.
The only difference is that in Tucson I wore my cowboy hat, and here, in Aiken, I wore my Carolina Gamecocks baseball cap.
What I thought most about along my walk this morning is how fortunate I am to have a wonderful, brick home with plenty of heat and hot water, and living like royalty compared to those who are homeless.
