Nữ sinh Đồng Khánh ngày xưa
Xui hoàng hôn tím trong thơ học trò
Nữ sinh Đồng Khánh qua đò
Xui dòng Hương cất giọng hò xa xôi
Nữ sinh Đồng Khánh dạo chơi
Phấn thông vàng rải ngát trời Thiên An

Gangolihat is a small Himalayan hill town in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand, India. It is tehsil and sub divisional headquarters of the district. Gangolihat is famous for its Shakti Peethas of Hat Kalika of goddess Kali. Nearby at 'Patal Bhubneshwar', underground caves are major tourist attraction. Also nearby are the tiny hill stations of Chaukori and Berinag.From Gangolihat Panchchuli peaks and Nanda Devi are clearly visible.
Gangolihat is located at
29.48°N 80.05°E. It has an average elevation of 1,760 metres (5,773 feet). It is 78 km from Pithoragarh. The main town is at a hill top. The region is surrounded by two rivers Saryu and Ramganga. Which meet at Ghat at the foothill of the region. These two rivers make it like a Garland on the shoulders of mighty Himalaya. These two rivers gave the name to the region Gang (River in local dialect) + Awali (Garland) making Gangawali. Which became Gangoli later on. and Hat were the main markets/ gathering place for local people in past. Which made the name of Gangolihat.
Gangolihat is native of Pant Brahmins mainly. Along with Pant's, Joshi's, Upreti's, Pathak's, Mahar's, Negi's, Bisht, Rawal's, Verma's, Shah and Aryas are other major surnames found.
Gangolihaat is famous for its ancient temples and underground caves. 'Haat Kalika', 'Ambika Dewaal', 'Chamunda Mandir', 'Vaishnavi Mandir' are some of the famous temples here. 'Vaishnavi Mandir' is a special one because from here one can clearly view the Himalayas. This temple is situated on a mountain that is called 'Shail Parvat', which is notable in Hindu holy books.
There are many beautiful underground caves in Gangolihaat. 'Patal Bhuvneshwar', 'Shailashwer Gufa' and 'Mukteshwar Gufa' are most notable ones. A new underground cave has been also found recently and that is called 'Bholeshwar Gufa'.
'Haat Kalika Mandir' was chosen by Adi Guru Sankaracharya for installation of Mahakali Shaktipeeth. It is believed that the Original Goddes Kalika Mata, which supposed to be in West Bangal, shifted her place form Bangal to Gangolihat. This Temple is very famous all over the India, specially among Indian Armed Forces. Posthumous Param Veer Chakra award winner Capt. Bikram Batra was a great devotee of Goddess. The goddess Mahakali is the designated goddess of brave Kumaun Regiment which proved its unmatched bravery and patriotism during all major wars fought by India. Kumaun regiment has created an Army Rest House near the Temple for Army Personnel, who come Gangloihat to get the blessing of Goddess.
There are historical monuments made during 8-11th century near the famous temple. Which is a site preserved by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). It depicts the nervelessness of the artistic creation at that time.
The highest peak in the range, Lankeshwar is a great picnic place. The view of greenery rich valleys of Kumaun Himalayas from this hilltop is memorable and heavenly.

This picture was in Explore on 13th of March 2011, not sure how it got there, but I understand Explore is some kind of computer program - AI that selects images based upon various criteria, although exactly what the criteria are I am unsure about.

On Monday little Bonnie got loose outside & went missing for 7 hours. I thought we'd lost her. She eventually found her way back to the house, but was very nervous.
So I've bought a small harness & lead so I can take her for walks & get her used to the big wide world in safety before letting her go loose again.
She's not enirely happy (esp if the grass is wet!) but as you can see, she will accept it. It helps to have big sister Bella alongside for protection!

my first explore was dropped. i don't really understand that explore system. interestingness or not i've seen pictures on explore that i don't really understand why they're there. my friend told me it was about the number of favorties but that isn't it because the most favorties i've recieved on a picture was 7 and that picture wasn't explored. i don't know how it works.

The tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa) is a perennial and night-blooming plant ... hence the Bengali / Hindi name is "Rajnigandha" 'Rajini' means night and 'Gandha', the one that has a sweet fragrance.

In my best Rolf Harris impression I'll ask "Can you tell what it is yet?" No? Well, it's actually the top off a lovely, vintage silver coffee pot, which I found while clearing out an old cabinet, it was hidden away amongst other odds and ends. I decided to give it a chance to shine on a lovely sunny day in our garden.
Uploaded on Valentines Day as a little reminder not to forget about the things we love....
