Driving: The saga continues....

I am back with my favorite topic on my blog.... ‘Driving License'

Currently I am in a state where in I can attempt and write a book relating to life cycle of owning a driving license with special notes on how to make things not work for you :-0

 

So you would imagine why I am the most frequent visitor to DMV, i have lost the chronological order also of all my visit.

Not to mention I would have visited more number of time in last one year then people visit in their life time....

So here comes the latest post on DMV visit saga, this time it is for renewing my Provisional License (it’s a bit of wacky rule, at first I was given a 3 month Learners License after that  I cleared driving test and got Provisional license valid for a year and then comes the day when you can proclaim your permanent license. I feel it a bit longer wait).

 

In my case it has never been easy I was would always find myself in some exceptional case, and this time my VISA expired in 7 months. So I see myself again standing outside DMV with all the possible document that I can gather to renew by Provisional license, which means I have another visit pending to claim my Permanent license.

License expiry dates are tagged with your VISA expiry date, with a 3 months grace period, where in they assume that by then VISA would get renewed. I had my finger crossed as last time my VISA renewal took 8 full months

 

So after all the wait I was at the window, what had never ever happened it happened  in next 90 seconds I had my renewed license in my hand and I was out of DMV… phew with a sigh of relief 

Mother’s Day

T his is me and my mom, this picture was taken when I was in Pune last December, during my last trip to Pune. Looking at the calendar it feels as if some time had passed away, but for me it more like yesterday of as older as of last week.

Like any other kids I too am bit closer to my mom, for many reason, for not only because what I am today is all because of her teaching and her patience that she had shown in my bringing up., but for many other reason also, she backs up and motivates me.

Many camp would say why we are trying to commercialize the sweet relation between mom and kids, i have a different opinion, it true that we are not to show our affection to mom only on a particular day of year, rather it should be year around. Why not to have a special day.

Mom would not be asking us to shower her with loads of gift or flower, she only want that her kids share the same love they had all during their childhood (back when we used to write essay titling ‘My Mom’)  

So leave all apart, time it say out loud 'I Love you MOM'

Blogathon, End, for a new start.

Blogathon: For now came to a closure:

26 days ago, I took a plunge into an unknown territory of Blog-marathon (Blogathon) which aims that a blogger would post daily for a month.

I start on 5^th April and as April neared to its end I had already posted 22 times, in terms of Blogathon it is not a completed race, In similar why if you participate in a Full marathon (26miles) if we drop down after 24 miles in terms of completion we were not able to complete, but in terms of personnel terms it is an accomplishment for me

I started blogging for the very first time back in Dec 2008 () back then I had no idea I would be able to see 50 post, but today this would be mine 162ns post, and I I really do not see an end to my blogging soon.

Few of the interesting post from Blogathon:

'I Can' and not 'I Want'

Evolution of Indoor Games

Smile :-0

I would like to thanks all my followers who would spend time on my post, that inspire in me continuing.

All I could say I would keep on posting some interesting post over time, love the tag ‘Johnnie Walker ‘ – Keep Walking

See you around soon.

Biking Trail

After couple of weeks planning finally this weekend we both set out for our first biking trip, all previous attempt weather played a spoil sport, which denied us from have this trip.

But this weekend was just amazing for any outdoor activity temperature wise it was in 20’s, we went to 'White Haven' some 110 miles from our place, splendid location, a place you would definitely love to have a nice big retirement home watch birds fly by winds buzzing around long unwind roads huge open farmlands, I bet it would be a dream place to be including mine.

Special thanks to Amol, for believing in me and let drive his car in his absence, so I took full advantage of it.

As most of the time we goof up at last minute so we planned to reach 30 minutes before, but due to bad traffic we were full 90 minutes late, only to know that the group had left as we did not report on time.

So either we plan next time or we could take the local city loop spanning 12.5 miles (20km) this section had some cycling in state park open farm land with lots up ups and down.

We were provided with map and details directions, so next 4 hours we both we cycling / walking / taking loads and loads of picture.

At the end of the day, we were determined to visit once again.

But one reaching home we both preferred sitting on Pillow :-0 (Your bum hurts after 4 hrs of cycling).

Picture from the trail, and i bet would amaze you and you to would want to bike at this stretch.
