The Meeting

“Yes, I am on my way”, he said over the phone.

Rohan was so happy. After a lot of writings and chatting he was about to meet Isha. Even though they never met, a bond of love kept them so close.
Rohan smirked while driving. The dusky evening added color to his smile. He wondered what he would tell, on seeing her for the first time. The silhouettes in his dreams were going to acquire a face.
‘Isha would be in her way too’, the thoughts about Isha made him drive fast.
‘A few more minutes to meet her’!! He took a peep at his watch and it seemed the needles were not moving.
He pressed the accelerator with great excitement.
 SSSSSSSSSSSPPPPLLLLLAAASSHH…  He didn’t see the car in front of him slowing down.
Before he could do anything the two cars got smashed.
*******************************************************
Rohan was sitting on a chair, enjoying the beauty of dusk. The cold wind caressed his wrinkled face, making him chilled. His grey colored hair seemed drenched of the mist. He always liked spending the evenings in fresh-cold-open air.
“Rohan, Beautiful evening huh? “ Rohan looked at Isha sitting beside him.
“Yeah, it is. As beautiful as the evening we decided to meet. “, replied Rohan followed by a sigh.
Isha kept mum.
Rohan wanted to wipe off the memories about that evening from his mind, but in vain. It popped up in his mind every now and then.
‘The damn accident..!’, he felt deep pain in his heart. The had accident created a dark shadow over his life, but he never could believe that Isha was the one in the other car.
 “Its late, Lets go inside”, isha replied in her feeble voice.
“I am sorry Isha, I was the one who caused all these to you”, tears rolled over his cheeks.  He felt words are not enough to express his grief.
Isha wanted to wipe his tears off, but her immobile body didn’t allow her to do so. Rohan stood up and pushed her wheel chair towards their house.

Glacier National Park: Day 1- Grinnell Glacier

Glaciers are formed by the repeated snowfalls in winter, and snow melts in summer. When snow accumulates by each passing snow fall, the snow becomes ice and heavy. This causes the mass of ice+snow to move around shaping and corroding the rocks. For this reason the mountains surrounding the glaciers will have very unique shapes, steep drop off points and can have sharp edges. Sad thing though, as temperature increases by global warming, the snow gets time to melt away and glaciers will slowly disappear. I read that, glacier national park had so many glaciers,which now dont even exist.

Glacier National park: Day 2- HighLine Trail

Our plans for the second day at glacier was to drive the 'Going to the sun road', and hike the HighLine trail. Going to the sun road is 50 mile very scenic drive through the mountains. It can be accessed from the east entrance at St Mary or the west entrance at West Glacier. We chose St mary, thinking we could watch the sunrise over St Mary lake when we start the day. The scenic road can be done by park's free shuttle system too. They are free and make stops at all attraction points along the route. Since we had to reach the other side of the mountain, we took our car.  The highest point on the route is Logan Pass which is home to two very beautiful and breathtaking trails, Hidden Lake trail and HighLine trail. The 12 mile HighLine trail is carved through the Garden Wall mountain ranges, you walk through a very narrow trail which is made right through the mountain. Though a lil scary this is a highlight of Glacier National Park.They also have a hand rail hung to the m

La La Land

This is one of the trips that I thought would be a fully urban feel and turned out not to be! La has its own fair share of everything;beaches,canyons,markets,gardens and the posh city life. We reached LA on the night of 26th April. We were staying near to the beaches, so it was a short drive from airport. Once we landed we grabbed dinner and shopped for water and snacks for the rest of the week. By around 10'o clock we were all set to hit the bed.
