Jimmy Wayne Facing Severe Cold On Charity Walk
Jimmy Wayne says progress on his "Meet Me Halfway" walk from Nashville to Phoenix has gone slower than he'd hoped. Unprecedented cold weather plaguing the Southeastern U.S. has caused some delays, and has forced him to seek shelter at night. The singer notes, quote, "I've had to sleep inside the past several nights because of these single digit temperatures. That wasn't my plan, but sometimes Mother Nature wins. Next week the area will hit highs in the 40s, downright balmy compared to what it's been, and I hope to get some good hours of walking under my belt." Wayne launched "Meet Me Halfway" on New Year's Day, and is working to raise awareness to the issue of homelessness and bring in money for organizations who help those who have no place to call home. His campaign now has an active website, MeetMeHalfway.JimmyWayne.com. The singer will be hosting a live webcast from the road airing on the site Monday morning at 10:00 a.m. Eastern.
