Both RQS and I set alarms for us to get out of bed, get dressed, and go to the Danbury Railway Museum. However, one thing got in the way - the 10:30 alarm I thought I had set didn't go off, and RQS didn't get out of bed until 11:30. By the time got moving, it was too late to go to Danbury, as the museum closes at 4:00. So we watched some videos, and relaxed most of the day.
Once we decided to get moving, RQS decided to wear a red floral dress. I figured that I'd join in on the same theme and wear the red floral dress I bought from Amazon last week. Given the 80 degree weather outside, this would be a perfect choice for me - and it was. To be safe, I brought my denim jacket (which I didn't need), but who knew how quickly it might get cool after dark.
Our first stop was at Pepe's Pizza in Yonkers. Both of us were hungry, and we hadn't had their pizza in a while. It was nice to be addressed as a female by the staff, and no one took notice of my less than feminine features. (Having worked on my voice and my presentation over the past decade and a half helps me blend in as female when I need to do so - especially when I have to go to the loo.) After we finished our meal, it was off to Lidl for some shopping. And today, I got off almost as well as I would have done at Trader Joe's. But then, I wasn't planning on buying much.
Going home as the sun was getting ready to set, I took an alternate route back to my house in order to avoid the harsh setting sun burning my eyes. Taking the "scenic route" back home, I was able to take a path where my eyes were protected from direct sunlight.

Tomorrow, we're planning on going to church and then to the railway museum. I hope we get to both.
