When we reached there, there were hardly any cars in the parking lot. It was a similar situation even during our previous visit. The falls overview can be reached from the parking area with <30 min hike through the wooded area via the green trail. There is a viewing platform to get a nice view…

Bash Bish Falls State Park (May 2021)
Coming out of the pandemic with both of us vaccinated, we felt a sigh of relief. May was bringing warmer days with the spring foliage in full bloom; it was an apt time for visiting waterfalls. We wanted to explore some areas that are nearby as the first outdoor trip for the year. Bash Bish…
Adirondacks: Indian Head and Rainbow Falls Hike
After contemplating for several weeks, we bit the bullet and decided to do this hike. The main problem for us was the daunting 11-12 mile hike. Anyway, the point is that we set off to do it this weekend. Sunday showed more chances for rain than Saturday. So, we left early on Saturday. We had…
Northern California Trip (June 2017)
Though we have been living in the country for a while, haven’t really planned a good long vacation in California. We’ve been meaning to see the giant trees, lush green valleys of Yosemite and scenic Pacific coast, we kept postponing for several reasons. In a way, it was good that we didn’t plan there in…
Blue Mountain Lake – Central Adirondacks
Our agenda was to get to Blue Mountain Lake and do the small hike up to the Castle Rock Summit to get a view of the Blue Mountain Lake. The drive from our house through the foothills of Adirondacks didn’t show that the fall colors had peaked, but once we went past Warrensburg and the…
Alaska – South Central Region
We took off from BOS to ANC with a stop-over in Seattle. While passing through Seattle, we got a beautiful view of Mt.Rainier! It was a partially clear day and it helped. We reached Anchorage a bit past 11 p.m. and by the time we rented the car it was almost mid-night, but no sign…

Falls Colors in Adirondacks.. Bummer
Like we did for the last couple of years, we were so excited to visit Adirondacks to see the fall colors during the Oct 2nd weekend – the weekend when normally the Octoberfest happens in the Whiteface mountain. Couple days before the weekend, the northeast got hammered with rain and wind. I had just spent almost…
Rhode Island – Block Is and Newport
Suddenly we decided before the long weekend to go away for the weekend… Well, we looked at where we can drive within 3-4 hrs and Rhode Island/ Block Island clicked correctly.. One of my colleagues had shown pictures of Block Is and he is from Block Is. We wanted to go to this place for…
Enroute to Acadia National Park and there..
October 9, 2009 Though we had been crazy about visiting Acadia National Park, I got to be honest! We enjoyed the ride upto ANP, through VT, NH and ME more than the ANP itself! Probably because of the time of the year we chose for the trip.. Autumn. The foliage in NE is certainly much…
