I found ’em…

Today one of my objectives was to find some airplanes. 

And there were places to look for them.  We have a few aviation museums on the Delmarva, and those were my aim.  I actually did get to one of them, but unfortunately could not get any really good selfies.  And I had to wear my ballet flats – I wanted to walk around the planes, which are usually parked on the grass, and didn’t want to ruin my sandals!   

This one picture will have to do:

After I was done looking around, I found a gaggle of guys my age standing around, telling war stories and talking about flying. I listened for a while but didn’t have much to add, so I left for home. At sun-up the next day, I knew I had some errands to run in town.  Which meant “no dress.”  I put on one of Mom’s black tunics, white shorts, white slide sandals and all my other accessories. 

At the grocery store, when I  reached the check-out counter, the clerk didn’t’ hesitate to address me as female, and when she finally saw my nails close-up, she wanted to know all about them.  (Fortunately there was nobody else in line!  Don’t we just love to “girl talk?”)  She would like to have a set like mine – in all acrylic since she wants them to last more than a week or two. (I was silently agreeing with her, and thinking how nice it would be!)

While there were still a couple days till I pick Wifey up from her trip. I’d made big plans for a couple of days of distant touring – with 3 overnight stays. But due to a transient eye problem which required an impromptu visit to “urgent care”, I had to switch from contacts to my old glasses, and abandon those plans. Plans changed. Only 1 night out, the rest day trips.

And I have a few things to do around the house, but I can do them in dresses. Just hope the doorbell doesn’t ring!
