Narrative:
En route home to ca from a fly in, landed for fuel at ZZZ1 and then continued on to next stop in ZZZ2 VFR at 4500 ft! After landing at ZZZ3 was contacted and advised that I had flown thru a temporary flight restriction over ZZZ. When checking WX and NOTAMS that morning in the computer I remember seeing a tfr for the tourist landmark in ZZZ4 and a number of others around the country, but none for ZZZ. I may have looked right at it, but cannot recall seeing it. At ZZZ1 prior to departure I read the airport bulletin board and find it strange that with a tfr so close that there was no bulletin concerning it posted. I switched my VHF communication to 121.5 right after departing ZZZ1 and never heard any calls concerning an aircraft approaching and then penetrating the tfr which I find strange also.
