I am an introvert so I could do it. I would read, listen to music, scrapbook and clean.

I actually love Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge area. But I hit the things that I like and for most of it we drive on the back roads to avoid most of the traffic. Teaster road is a great road to use in PF. On July 3rd right at midnight Gatlinburg does the biggest 4th oh July parade and it is wonderful. We park up traffic light 3 and sit on the wall going down into town avoiding the huge crowd. Well worth it. My favorite restaurant in Gatlinburg is Howard's. It's at the very end of the town. Again we drive back roads to avoid the traffic. In PF we love Carrinos Italian restaurant and Applebarn restaurant but we go there at 4pm to avoid the huge dinner rush. There apple fritters and apple butter are worth it. Love the apple spice cake with sauce for dessert. Cades Cove is absolutely gorgeous but make sure you have drinks with you and use the bathroom before you go if you do the long loop.

I read The American Roommate Experiment by Elena Armas. She was signing books at my local bookstore. Cute romcom story. Rosie Graham has a problem. A few, actually. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer, only to enter a creative slump. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. She heads to her best friend Lina's empty apartment, not knowing that Lina has already lent the studio to her cousin Lucas, who Rosie has been stalking for lack of a better word on IG. To Rosie's surprise, Lucas offers to let her stay with him, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. Soon, Rosie discovers that Lucas is intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armor. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel, has a distracting grin, an irresistible accent, and comes with a set of mad cooking skills. And when Lucas learns of Rosie's writer block, he proposes an outrageous idea to bring back her literacy muse and meet her deadline, he'll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly online crush is totally under control but Lucas's stay in New York has an expiration date, and six weeks may not be enough time for either her or her deadline.

I was very sad to hear of his passing. I loved his music and songwriting skills. Rick Springfield posted a beautiful tribute to him as well as Shaun Cassidy who sang Eric's songs That's Rock n Roll and Hey Deanie two of Shaun's biggest hits. Hungry Eyes and All By Myself are such great songs.

And boy/girl twins born to another cousin. I also have several relatives who miscarried twins. My dad's sister had twins boy/girl.

I read The Good Left Undone by Adriana Trigiani. What an amazing story! 4 stars from me. Matelda, the Cabrelli family's matriarch, has always been brusque and opinionated. Now, as she faces the end of her life, she is determined to share a long-held secret with her family about her own mother's great love story: with her childhood friend, Silvio, and with dashing Scottish sea captain John Lawrie McVicars, the father Matelda never knew. In the halcyon past, Domenica Cabrelli thrives in the coastal town of Viareggio until her beloved home becomes unsafe when Italy teeters on the brink of World War II. Her journey takes her from the rocky shores of Marseille to the mystical beauty of Scotland to the dangers of wartime Liverpool where Italian Scots are imprisoned without cause as Domenica experiences love, loss, and grief while she longs for home. A hundred years later, her daughter, Matelda, her granddaughter, Anina, face the same big questions about life and their family's legacy, while Matelda contemplates what is worth fighting for. But Matelda is running out of time, and the two timelines intersect and weave together in unexpected and heartbreaking ways that lead the family to shocking revelations and, ultimately, redemption.
So many beautiful stories, characters weaved together in a stunning novel.
