I usually pick RQS up from the local railroad station in feminine gender presentation. This week, since she came up on a Saturday, I was dressed as Mario for a change when I picked her up. And from there, we headed North without a fixed destination.
Now, being in male mode precluded a stop at Karina Dresses. But this didn't prevent us from driving through Kingston and heading West from there. I figured that we should reach the Bread Alone bakery before changing direction, and RQS said that this was worth the drive. Not only was she impressed by the quality of the breads there, but she loved the small pizza we had on site. Yum!
Next, I decided to drive along the Southern side of the Ashokan reservoir, and we stopped at the dam (NYC no longer allowing cars to drive across it since 9/11) and took a walk. Both of us captured some nice pictures such as the one at the top of this entry. Even with the reservoir drawn down to Summer levels, it still was a great photo-op that we didn't miss.
At this point, both of us were tired and wanted to go home to eat. This was one night where we conked out early, as we both needed a good rest.
