Some fun around town...

More local fun...

I was leaving the nursing home where Mom stays, and a car pulled up on the driveway next to me.  I didn't pay any attention to it, but as I continued to walk toward my car, I heard "Ma'am?  Excuse me, Ma'am?"  So I looked around and the elderly male driver had lowered his passenger window to talk to me.  (Good thing I answer to male OR female forms of address.)   He had several questions about where he should park, since he had handicap plates and there are two entry doors.  I helped orient him, and he ended with "Thank you Ma'am."

Those occurrences are always so pleasant!

My next stop was at a liquor store, where I was in search of a particular adult beverage to give as a wedding anniversary gift.  To the male clerks, I was female, the entire visit.  Unfortunately, they weren't able to help.  Guess I'll have to stop at a bigger store across the bay bridge...

Since the weather was spectacular, and I was in the mood for a picture while wearing my new heels, on the way home I made a detour and visited the re-purposed former PRR train depot in Easton.  I walked on the rail trail for a bit, then got out the camera. 





My new shoes are a bit snug, but I think they'll loosen up over time...so they're a keeper.  And not hard to walk in with the low heel.  Because the heel is not pointy (stilletto), they're very stable.  Less chance of tripping or twisting an ankle. That's a big plus!  They didn't cost a fortune, but I hope they work over the long run.  There's nothing I'd like better than to be able to wear heels while dressed, no matter what the outfit!

  2. That is a very good look for you. The tight pegged capris with nude hose and the low heels. I cannot fathom anyone seeing you dressed like this and not using the "Maam" form of address. I am glad that you are able to get out and about as well as you do. Keep it up.

    1. Thanks, I like the style as well. And it certainly helps to have outfits like that as my everyday wear. My heels were "the icing on the cake" that day!
