Life Ho To Aisee - Sept-Oct-2007

Hello everybody,

First, a belated happy dassera to all of you.
I know you all are eagerly waiting for "Life Ho To Aisee".
But time is not permitting me to write enough on this and then once the work is pending will remain same. (Something like first law of Newton).
One thing is for sure, the gap for "Life Ho To Aisee" does not mean it has stopped or there is nothing going on in life and so on.
I got lot of emails asking about this. I must appreciate you all for your patience.

So continuing on Life ho to aisee again….
(As it was pending for long, there are too much details. But I am sure, you will not get bored reading everything).

11th August, 07:- Our trekking group went to Koraigad. It is near to Lonawala and very near to Ambey Valley. We went there on bike. Good rainy season and road from Lonawala to Ambey Valley was awesome. It was full foggy and we could see hardly 10 mtrs of road. On the way back, we enjoyed the water falls and the beautiful Bushi Dam.
Only bad thing happened in this trek was with my mobile. Because of rain water, it is no more active.
But good thing is I bought new Nokia 3110c (with 1 GB card off course !!!)

14th August, 07:- We had independence day celebration in office and theme was tri-color. This is my get-up for the day.

Same day, we had pooja in house for newly married women called "mangalagauri". That day night was like a festival. We were playing lots of game and then antakshari till next day morning. It was a rest day at all.
I missed my sister during Rakhi Pournima. She is in Norway.


September, 07:- Then there is Ganesh Chaturthi and gauri celebration. This is the first time in our new house. So lots of curiosity.
We had Ganesh mandal in our society and hence everyday functions.
I and Anagha participated in Antakshari and won the game.


2nd October, 07:- I got a new vehicle on this day. It’s a two wheeler, does not require either petrol or battery. It is manually operated. Yes, you got it right… (Photo next time..)

6th and 7th October, 07:- Harishchandragad Trek (http://www.trekshitiz.com/)

I, Anagha, Bharat, Amol, Anant and Tejas started on Friday night to Khireshwar, base village for Harishchandragad. We reached there at 2 am, slept outside one house. Next day morning, we started for the trek at 8 am. It was a long trek counting 5 and half hours. We were thoroughly exhausted by the October heat. We got one cave (read as specious and luxurius hall) to stay. Had our lunch and then everybody slept. We got up at 4:30 and then started towards 'kokan kada', the most beautiful place at Harishchandragad. But weather was not so good and we were not able to see it. It was full dark and cloudy. So we decided to come here
again next day morning and we did. All the hills were covered by clouds. Its awesome.
It was truly a remarkable place. After taking tons of photographs, we started back to our cave.
We all were tired and cancelled the plan to go the top summit, Taramati, which is 700 ft still above.
We started our journey back, reached to Khireshwar at 2:30 pm.
It was really a wonderful trek of my life.

12 th October 2007:- Ghat sthapana (pooja at house)
12/13/14 Oct 2007:- Koyana nagar
Deepak planned for Koyana nagar. We joined the gang on Friday night. It was a nice upcoming hill station. Koyana dam is situated here, which generates the electricity for entire Maharashtra.
It was nice two days here, relaxing with the company of others.
Hmm… that’s the end for this edition. There are too much to write. But I do not want to taste your patience.
I know you like to read, but I'll stop here. One can call this as a Deewali edition of Life ho to aisee.
Anyway, keep updating about yourself and do not forget to send comments/suggestions.
There are very helpful and keep me motivating always.

In the end, I wish all the readers of Life Ho To Aisee and their families a happy, healthy and memorable Deewali.
