Wow- this month has totally flown by! I can’t believe it is Labor Day weekend already. Our summer was very busy- had some nice trips thrown in there, but I think we are ready to go back to our routine-plus it is disgustingly humid in New Jersey lately and I HATE humidity.
The family went on a great trip up to Lake Placid, NY. It is so beautiful up there, especially in the summer. We hiked (ugh), went to the top of Whiteface Mt., saw the High Falls Gorge, and relaxed by the lake. The kids learned to paddle board, and did some canoeing, while I lounged and read!!
I also went to Boston with just my husband- Freedom Trail and all!!
Here is what I did here on the blog and reading-wise:
Books Read
Beautiful Day
My Notorious Life
The Girl You Left Behind
Mockingjay
Catching Fire
The Hunger Games
The Perfume Collector
The Other Typist
The Bones of PAris
9-not so bad!

And I was nominated for The Versatile Blogger Award- yeah!
How is your summer wrapping up?
I’m already lamenting the end of nice weather. Haha! I can’t stand winter (cold and snow–ew).
Sounds like you had a lovely time on your trips. Yay!
It sounds as though you had a wonderful time. We all need some R & R from time to time.
Sounds like a nice month! The trips sound like a lot of fun! Lake Placid looks gorgeous! It is really humid here also and it just makes me want to stay inside! I’m so ready for fall!
Those pictures are sooo pretty. One of the things that makes me sad about living in Colorado is that there is nothing green here. Everything is so brown and dry.
Looks like a fun summer. I’m jealous you went to Boston!

Great month!
Blech to humidity! I’m so glad that those days are almost over. Bring on fall weather, woooo! 😀
I hate humidity too. Yuck. I’ve always wanted to visit Boston, glad you had a good time!
Great month of reading! I read The Other Typist, and many of the others are on my wish list.
My cousin lives in Lake Placid and works at Whiteface! Small world 😛 It’s so beautiful there. And Boston is one of my favorite cities! Hope you had a great time there.
Good gravy, you read a lot this month! I so want to read a few of those books.
I love Lake Placid- had a great time.
You had a good month!
