RQS was up here for the weekend, and we decided to visit the Norman Rockwell museum in Massachusetts. I made the mistake of taking my least favorite road, the Taconic State Parkway, and got "rewarded" for my efforts - I fed the "Bear". Yup, a "Smokey" nailed me. This was my first ticket in years, and I will be paying for it! AARGH!
But asides the assassination, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
I was surprised when RQS suggested that I spend the day as Marian, and we had a great time (ticket, not withstanding.) She had never been at this museum before, and it was nice to be able to spend an hour looking at Rockwell's work. Getting ticket is an awkward feeling at best, and I was in female presentation at the time. I was glad that the officer treated me with respect (he has likely seen everything in his line of work), and I was on my way with a minimum of wasted time.
On the way home, we took slower moving roads, and ended up in Dover Plains, NY where we stopped into a local ice cream shop before it closed for the season. Yum! If you're ever up in this area when the weather is warm, go visit them. For me, it's a must stop when I'm driving on Route 22....
