To Marshall

I'm about 12 miles out, and hope to get there by early afternoon. Then to WalMart for some rain gear, and then onto Longview. Its very humid this morning. My theory is that by noon, the sun burns it all up, which is why there's a dry heat in Texas. Its a theory anyway, and maybe a hope. I don't think I can deal with 100 degree heat and humidity. I still have ice in my cooler and that's really helping me cool down. Reaching Texas, has gotten me to ponder the road thus far and my journey. Mostly I was running, trying to get away from my old life. Now though, I feel like I'm running to something. And that's a great feeling.
