This year (ie June 2007 till now) has not been great from the point of view of our trekking feats. (I have a vague sense of this timeframe called year. Neither does it start in January nor in April. More on that later).
Hectic travel schedules (returning to town mostly on Saturday mornings), the continuing saga of house hunting on weekends and those couple of unavoidable trips to the telephone office, banks and LPG agency in effect robbed most of our Saturdays from what otherwise could have been an action packed, fun-filled treks or hikes with Nature Knights.
So was this weekend. No treks. Had canceled the road trip planned. And fortunately there was a respite from house hunting since we postponed it by a couple of months. I then decided to catch up with the some blogs bookmarked earlier and explore some new ones.
The interesting discovery of this week was http://my-think-pad.blogspot.com. ‘Reflections’, ‘musings’, ‘random ramblings’ are perhaps the more found (claimed) variety of blogs. Except that reflections are hard to find in those. This one however was refreshingly different. These were every day stories, well told. Often with genuine reflections that make readers think. The web of hyperlinks to comments from involved readers and pointers to other stories made it a treasure trove. I ended up spending over 2 hours in reading most of them.
Not bad for a Sunday.
Tailpiece: While on blogging and reading, I came across this nice cartoon
