Deer In Front of My Balcony

Sadiaa, my sister-in-law, went to our balcony to water the plants a little earlier. Low and behold she saw this beautiful deer in front of her. I was in a piano recital for Ahyan, so I regretfully missed it. In the early morning when I was coming back from MCA after Fajr prayer, I saw some wild jerkings on those trees but couldn't see anything as its quite dense. It must have been there since then. But its gone now, at least for the day!

Hiking Sunol Wilderness - Vista Grande Overlook

Last Sunday, 2nd August, we 9 people hiked Sunol Wilderness. This was my second hiking and a beautiful and scenic one. From Bay Area Bangladeshi Hikers Group it was the third hike . As per Hasinur's information the details are given below. Hiking Trail: Sunol Wilderness - Vista Grande Distance: 6.1 miles, Loop Hiking Time: 3 to 4 hours Elevation Gain/Loss: +/- 1600 feet Difficulty Level: Difficult In a weekday before this hike, we guys went to Union City Sports Authority and bought half pant, t-short, cap and shoe. I liked my Columbia hiking shoe very much and Shahriar also picked the same brand. We reached the Sunol Regional Park at 7:15 AM and started the trail at 7:45 after waiting for Nitol, Gajendra and Nitol's Indian colleague. They came in a separate car and parked we missed each other as mobile network doesn't work in that area. So they took a different trail in the same area and finished before us.
