I'm sexy and I show it

S and T must presently be LKO-bound, and probably rolling into HLD in their 21:55 Bag Express. We parted ways ~1930 in a shared Innova being in front of Modern Hairdresser (Tallital), following which I walked across the rd. to get a haircut, following which I purchased food supplies (for survival in the following 17 hrs) and walked back to G. listening to music on my PMX680s, with the song on pause at the void zones (regions void of human/civilizational presence, say, a barren chain of hills) to soak in the jungle.

The joyride (aka ultimate मुंहचोदी) is over now, but I'm on a lingering high, nonetheless, for the 3 days spent with these guys was an alt. and exciting experience. It was, unbelievabingly, my first visit to Mukteshwar (and I boast my Kumaon lineage as if the region leaves me no unexplored destinations); I have been lazy as the locals are, which I can blame upon human nature. Reading from the milestones, the names in Corbett's accounts came flashing back... Mukteshwar, Devidhura, Mornaula - brings back memories of a teenager nervously leafing through his books and discovering the ways of handling fear. I felt a lot wiser by end of this trip (than what I was anticipating in the comfort of my loneliness until S called me up) and also feel like a fool for being ignorant of travel in this region and travel in the monsoons.
