A breath of fresh air to our suffocating souls

A roadtrip always is full of adventure. Highlights of our Colorado roadtrip were that there was not much planning and brooding done over it,  seven heads just sat together and came up with this wonderful plan. We had a GPS with us this time and missed out on some fun at the roads. But its comparatively less difficult to get lost on Texas highways. After all the confusion we finally left UTA on friday orning and thus began my first ever roadtrip. Well equipped with food, music collection and camping supplies we had fun traveling across Texas. We could feel the vastness of the state as we traveled, the state is apt for the 'Texan size', its huge. We cut through New Mexico and reached Colordado at night. New Mexico is quite beautiful, its just that only a few of us could appreciate the beauty of this mostly barren land. Last minute shopping at Walmart(yes, I can proudly say that I go to Walmart even when I am on vacations) and we were all set for camping. The tent was finally set. the sky never looked so beautiful. Its that night that I came to know the peace and calm when everything around you is calm and quiet.
After that day I made my mind that I will never disturb Deependra when he asks for some quiet time. This resolution didn't last long and I still continue to trouble him. Next day began at the crack of dawn and we left for rafting. White water rafting at the Arkansas was thrilling and made most of us value our lives even more! Pike's peak, Rocky mountain , all these places have the nature at its best.

Royal gorge suspension bridge is the highest suspension bridge in the world built by a rich man who had a lot of money to spend. The gorge has abundant store of precious stones. Rafting in the Arkansas river reminded me of the movie Mackenna's gold. People still come to the banks of the river to look for gold.It felt awesome to go from 37C in Texas to 37F at Pike's peak. Located at 14000ft above the sea level this place is famous for its road to the peak. There is also a train that takes passengers to the peak.

Madhumita was my buddy in shopping and we got 'stones'  and magnets from all these places. Beautiful, thrilling ,fun, adventure are thus the key words of our trip all well captured in the camera by our very  own camera man:Harish. All and all the trip was a success.  I  thus strongly believe that like minded people should do like minded things and that quite explains the series of events that followed...

"Hurting" knees of Mr. Einstein

Ever since I was a kid, my mom always said that I do not listen to her much but I would rather listen to a few other people. She said, I develop a trust in those people and tend to agree with what they have to say. There have been people like these around me all the time. Hardly ever I've seen myself getting convinced by what other people say. But it works quite the opposite sometimes.  And I'm glad to have such thinking heads around me.. Life is much easier with having you guys around.
As you must know I don't really notice people around me.. but there are some brains that intrigue me. Mr. Einstein is one such person. Having a redundancy for brains in the knees helps to think in a direction which normally other people wouldn't think of. This scientist brain has a new dimension of looking at things.Whenever one feels a little low and depressed about things, and need a little reality check,this is the place to go. Having his own beliefs about things, he is one person who believes in work over luck!! This Einstein has stood by me in my worst times, like a pied piper he turned me around when needed. 
Whatever said and done, kudos to you, Mr. Einstein! Here's wishing you all the success as you are set to follow your heart . Cheers!!
