Hope everyone had a fantastic holiday weekend! This is a quick post thrown together this morning because I was too tired to write it when we got home last night. Hubby and I spent a couple of nights in Nashville. The weather was breezy and temps perfect in the low 80s. This picture was taken from a rooftop bar in the downtown area on Friday night. You can see the bridge lights were festive. I took some others, but when I checked my phone later, they weren’t there. Have no idea why.
Hubby golfed on Saturday. I’m not a golfer, but it was a gorgeous day to ride in the cart with him. I read and enjoy the scenery while he plays – and also laugh over some of his shots. I finished The Dead and the Dark that I featured on my WWW Wednesday post last week and it gets a big stamp of approval from me. I barely watched golf because I couldn’t look away from the book.
We came home yesterday morning (Nashville is only an hour away) and spent the day with friends hanging out by their pool and eating more food than we should. Fireworks were all over our neighborhood last night, and surprisingly Bond didn’t spend the evening hiding under the bed. Last year he didn’t emerge until they were over. Today will be spent catching up on book reviews and writing, writing, and more writing. I got my deadline from my publisher on the sequel to Subject A36, and I’ve got plenty of work to do.
Enjoy today if you’re still off from work, and have a great week!

I’m glad you had a nice 4th, Teri! Some day, you should try to play golf. It’s a great thing for couples to do together. Happy writing!

I gave it a shot at the driving range several years ago, but I have zero talent and no interest, Jill. It was an absolute disaster, lol. I’m better off reading and watching.

Nashville is nice. Glad you had a fun time there. Sounds like you’ve got a busy week ahead of you and then some. Happy reading and writing!

So much on the to-do list and not sleeping last night makes it seem even longer. Ugh. Planning to go out for a walk to clear the brain and engergize the body (and also listen to a book), then dive in. Have a great week, Tessa!

Sounds like a good weekend to me. I have the house to myself, so all I managed was writing.

Nashville sounds like a great place I would love to visit. Bravo to you for not playing golf just to please your hubby. Reading while on the cart would be perfect! Mine goes on motorcycle rides and I stay home and read and write. It all works very well!!

He knows I’m not a golfer and never will be. When the weather’s good I sure don’t mind riding along. Beautiful scenery and good Bloody Mary’s!

We really did, Robbie. Now we get to FaceTime with the boys later today, so in a way we get to “see” them also.

I haven’t enjoyed a roof top bar in… a decade… or two! Sounds so fun to be out and about after 18 months of hunkering down. And get writing! I’m looking forward to your A36 sequel. 🙂

It’s the first one we’ve been to in about four years I think? Such a perfect evening with the weather and a beautiful view. I’ll be hunkered down finishing that sequel, Diana!

Sounds like a wonderful weekend. Weird about the disappearing photos though. Glad Bond wasn’t so scared by the fireworks this year.

And the one that disappeared was my favorite. My phone also decided on its own to delete some screenshots and several other photos a couple weeks ago. Has a mind of its own, I guess.
