It was a foggy,not so hot day, and when i got to the lake, was surprised there were a number of people there. I doubt if i would have had the courage to don my bathing suit, in front of a lot of kids, and moms. i fished in drab trunks, and swam some. People were right there all day. Later, i drove to another town, with a great bakery, where i went in as Alice last year. But, they had just closed! So, i drove off, headed for the interstate. But, had to stop for a four way stop. And after i started, a police vehicle turns and is right behind me, for four miles, then, of course, its flashing lights and sirens, and pulls me over, for a random check! I was not speeding , nor problems, just a random check. I was stopped in 2005, while dolled up, and it would have happened again, if i was dressed this time, maybe. I am sure the two officers would have been professional, like the other one, but my license would not have matched my looks. Some times, gut feeling, and not dressing on a particular day or night, works out better.
