Racing against time

Obviously August is one of the driest months in Washington and so is the posting frequency in this blog. Not exactly busy, but let's just say that I was engaged... in doing other things!

However, I did have time to go for a hike to a mountain called "Silver Peak" in the Snoqualmie area. Not sure if I would be able to do hikes of this sort after a while. Got to make hay while the sun still shines - I mean, winter would be here soon! ;)


The car, the bag, the mountain!

Nice, still, cold, quiet, lake
--..--..--


Safe to eat or not? But I am still alive!
--..--..--


What lies beneath
--..--..--


All the way there?
--..--..--


Do you call that snow?
--..--..--


Now that's snow. Rainier himself!
--..--..--


It was a nice (and long) hike to reach the peak. Hoping to make a few more of these in the near future before the baby-face Seattle starts crying again!

Have a nice day!

PS: I was wrestling with blogger for the past 2-3 days. For some vague reason, the image upload feature was buggy. Anyway, I think I deserved that for being lazy.

sappa matters -#3

SM1: Atlantic Hurricane predictions lowered - This is such a slap on my face. It is as if the east coast was waiting to get rid of me, and once I did get out, the hurricane family decides - aah well, he ain't there no more!

SM2: Performed Aavani-avittam with one yagnopaveetham possibly for the last time! ;)

SM3: Please, somebody, anybody, side up with me when I say New York City is over-rated!!
