K-9 Covid-19?
Came back from the skate park
That hurt!!
The upside of a rural living
More than thirteen years back Sharmila and I moved the daughters and ourselves from Dallas, Texas to Milton, Georgia. While parts of Milton has seen a lot of development after that, certain other parts still retains the semi-rural style of living. You know … like dirt roads, well water, septic tanks and internet thru DSL.
We have absolutely loved living in the privacy and beauty of quiet solitude of nature. It used to be that if some farm or neighbor lost a cat or dog, they used to staple the picture on those wooden electric posts and we used to read them up.
Lately, we have had technology like “Nextdoor” apps. But I promise you, you can bring in technology to us, you cannot take away our pastoral living though. Check out some snippets of lost pets in our neighborhood from Nextdoor… goats, pigs, ducks, horses and what have you!!!
Weekend music session
This one is from Gulzar. We grew up listening a lot to this song. I think this was featured in a Hindi movie. (not an expert on Hindi movies – so not sure of it though)
Naam gum jaayegaa,
Chehra ye badal jaayegaa,
Meri aawaaz hi pehchaan hai,
‘Gar yaad rahe
Roughly translated…
My name will be lost to your memory
And I will look very different too
But my voice will still be recognizable
Only if you are able to remember it

Fall Color Ride
Had an enjoyable ride up in the mountains today with John. The section between Faussett Lake and Burnt Mountain was brilliantly colored. Just last week, this stretch was all green. All the colorful leaves had fallen due to Zeta.
The Youtube video does not do justice to the colors (blurring due to reduction of file size).
