Chi-Town Trip
Finally, I could find sometime to go for a trip to Chicago. I am always ready to visit that city because I feel it as my home town in US.:). Ofcourse the reason is because I have landed there only when I came to US from India first time. Isn't this funny?. But not for me...
I had a plan to visit my uncle's place in Chicago. And also one of my friends also planned to visit Chicago for his personal reasons. So I thought I can shoot two birds at one shot. After spending two days at my uncle's place, one fine saturday me and my friend went on a road trip. We went to Milwaukee. I would say that as a city of dead. OMG, that city is kind of depressing may be for its oldness. But the good thing is that we have visited the Milwaukee museum of Art which is like a architectural wonder.
Later we also visited the Miller's beer brewing company and went on a small tour in which they showed the brewing and packing process of Miller beer. It was kind of fun to see that gigantic system of beer brewing. What else, I have returned back to Oregon after the trip.
And back to work and cooking stuff........:(
Check out some cool photos of that museum and the michigan lake.

Oregon Sand Dunes - The most memorable trip
Day : March 21st, 2009(Saturday)
Time : From 10 PM to 1 AM
I cannot imagine how much I laughed at the specified period above. I think that is the day where I laughed atmost(to hell infact). It went till me getting some chest pain as well due to laugh. Ok, let me not blabber anymore and come to the point.
I went to a place called Florence which is in the Oregon state of US(West Coast). This is a place with full of sand dunes where one can take ATV(its a vehicle which is used to drive in sand) on rent and enjoy the ride in the tough sand. This is a different experience for me as we dont find this things in India.
So we(me along with other 3 teammates) started travelling towards that place. Our plan was to reach there afternoon and return by the same night. We have reached there at 5 PM in the evening since the drive was along side of pacific ocean and we had to stop at few scenic places. Believe me, pacific coast drive is one of the best drives.
Finally we got to know that the rental shop will be closed at 5 PM. So we thought of not missing the chance and stayed that night in a small motel. This decision was the turning point for us to have LOADS of fun in the motel. First we have visited a nearby casino and won some money($20 for $1 investment). Then we went to a restaurant called Bay Street Grill where I have met one of the beautiful girls I have ever seen. OOPS! she was an absolute beauty. I had a good time having drink and food served by her.
Later, we headed over to hotel and then started the actual fun. People were in good mood and started explaining their past in the form of stories. My god, the way everybody explained their college life, career and crushes was HILLARIOUS. I almost had a doubt that police may come by seeing the way we were shouting and laughing. We had to end this earlier to leave the next day morning to play in sand dunes.
At last, we rented the vehicles and had lots of fun in sand dunes. The weather was also helpful for us to enjoy perfectly in the drive. It was a wonderful experience. Later we played mini golf which was unexpected in the plan. The fun continued in the game as well by commenting and playing jokes on each other.
As I always tell any day has to end. So we rushed back to our place(Beaverton) by having nice food in an Indian restaurant on the way. Once again, you should have right company to have right fun. And I guess It doesn't happen all the time.
Check out few pics below -->
Beautiful pacific coast
Nice drink served by beautiful lady in the restaurant.:)

My Journey in US - Part 5
OOPS!! Its almost 3 months since I have posted a blog. You know, I was like drowned in my project work from the last 2/3 months. It is always good to have more work in this bad economy times. So was inviting as much as work it comes on my way.
So as a come back I would want to post a blog on my journey in US(Part -5). Below is the older post which is actually part -4 where I stayed in Groton, CT.
http://ootb-jaggu.blogspot.com/2008/12/64-paul-revere-rd.html
I have got my next project in Beaverton, Oregon in the west coast. Well, yes I have moved to another end of US which I wanted anyways. Believe me, Oregon(also called Green state) is a very beautiful place, but only thing is it rains almost always. Once you get used to it, this is great place to live for a while.
Now I am working for Intel Corporation which has very big facility( 7 to 8 campuses) here. Even NIKE has its headquarters here. So small city with big companies. Its all fun since the Portland and Seattle cities are near and driveable. Here I am posting some pics of local and Seattle. I have visited Boeing manufacturing plant, Microsoft and Downtonw in Seattle. Well one thing I would say about Boeing is, its just a wonder to see the anufacturing process of aeroplanes in which we travel. Can you believe that a Beoing 747 plane is manufactured completely in 3 days and delivered. Its just a beauty. Well let me post some pics below. Hope you enjoy them.
It doesnt snow here much normally. But it snowed so heavily in Christmas 2008 after 1930 as below.

64 Paul Revere Rd
Cool!!!! The title is not a movie(like 15 Park Avenue). :)
This is the place(house) where I had a very good stay at Groton, Connecticut while I was working for Pfizer.
This post actually is a continuation of my journey in US. Please visit the below link for the history.
http://ootb-jaggu.blogspot.com/2008/03/my-journey-in-us-part-3.html
So after working in North Carolina, I have moved to Connecticut and got new friends again in the my path. But this time it was fun professionally and personally with the group I have worked with. The community where we have stayed(Groton Estates) will be remembered by all our team members.
The apartment community has got bulk bookings of apartments since lot of people came to join this project along with me. :). I worked like a driver to manager initially to make new comers settle down in the new place since most of them were new to US. Daily pick up, drop, shopping, groceries...ha ha.. it was fun. After all nothing wrong in helping.
I can't forget the 2 mile walk to a Beach nearby and speding time there with friends. Weekend cooking(sale), especially experiments on me with new items by the other two girls(infact only one girl) staying at 113 Nathan Hale Rd were nice moments to share and remember.
Can't stop mentioning about my roommate Srikanth. He was the one of the nice persons I have lived with. Well, having a good friend is always a nice feeling when you are alone.
The project was much fun for all people because of having a good team. We could do some good work as well with the friends around helping each other. Anyways nice things lasts for sometime as usual, so we had to split to other projects quickly for various reasons. Looking forward to work with all again.

Crater Lake...An exceptional beauty
Nothing can be compared to the natural beauty. This is again proved when I went to Crater Lake. Crater Lake is a naturally formed lake out of volcanic eruption 7700 years back. This is the deepest lake in US. By the way this is located in Oregon State.
I cannot really explain the scenic beauty around the lake. Believe me, its worth watching once in a life time. The waters are so blue that you cannot even imagine. For me, it was a great relief to visit that place after long long working hours from last one month.
Due to winter, the Rim Drive(a loop drive around lake) is closed. But the entrance which is open was great enough to explore the entire lake over from a mountain. Snow everywhere on the road, absolutely perfect view of the lake from mountain, perfect climate, scenic roadways and water falls etc made my visit great.
Check out some photos below -->
