The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week. I'm also linking up to The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance @Readerbuzz.
Happy Sunday!
I'd have had this up earlier but I had to work yesterday (Saturday) and I was too done to do anything but make dinner and listen to an audiobook! I hate working on the weekend as it throws my schedule off.
After a busy week with family visiting and working two days. I'm tired! We had a fun visit though, rafting down the Truckee River, hiking, visiting a train museum and aquarium. We cooked dinners and went out. My sister and her husband were part of the activities as well.
Truckee River Rafting
We had lunch and shopped in downtown Truckee (near Lake Tahoe) after rafting. We went early to beat the heat and it was 47 degrees when we first parked!
Local author Jill Shavis signed books at Word After Word Bookstore.
I finally managed to finish a puzzle I was working on Friday:
National Parks Map by Cavallini & Co.
It's been hot here, mid to upper 90s, but it's supposed to cool down next weekend. The days are getting shorter though, so it feels like fall is creeping up. Our front property is in full bloom:
"Spring Madia" pops up every year about this time

I'd say I'm just going to rest today but I have flowers to plant and chores to catch up on. I have to work tomorrow.

How was your week?
You've been so busy! You're reading all the good stuff though - Murderbot and Innkeeper. hehe That's quite the temperature range in a day. You are so good at puzzles. We are working on the same one we started like 3 years ago, but haven't worked on it for the last 2 years. lol It's going to heat up again here this week.
