Well, not much is being written here these days - there could have been a few posts over the last month or so but they did not happen, somehow....

Let me quickly make a note of a couple of recent events:

1. Visited a place called Nighoj - 80 kilometers from Pune, off the highway to Nagar. The Ghod river runs thru a rocky gorge there - 2 kilometer long, <50 feet deep; although the dimensions are anything but impressive, the rock has been eroded into some cool formations - pillars, potholes... The country around is nice for a drive in the evening. Hope to put up some photos here in a future post.

2. Climbed Purandar fort - 40 kilometers from Pune, via Saswad. From the very top, we saw the first monsoon showers approach from a distance and then got drenched in a thunderstorm and I nearly got hit by a bolt of lightning (saw a sharp flash not far off and simultaneously, something like a mild electric shock ran down my person; and then there was loud clap of thunder; it was very creepy!).
