    @Viswamitra
    GOOD Morning.
    I trust you had comfortable flight and landed softly with all your baggage in Chennai.
    Regards.

    @Thyagarajan,

    So far the trip is going well with the grace of God. It is hectic but satisfying. I am also missing too much action in the US.

    :hello:As I prayed standing infront with foldedhands in sanctum of Lord Ananth Padhmanabha at ADAYAR during the priests parayanam of sacred Vishnu Sahasranama, some of your statements in various posts in indusladies crossed my mind!

    Regards.

    Dear Sri Thyagarajan:

    You really humbled me by thinking about me when you were standing in Sanctum Sanctorum of Sri Ansndha Padmanabha Swami. It brought pleasant memories of my regular visits to the Temple when I lived in Adyar. My uncle was the Secretary and Vaithi Subramania Iyer was the Executive Trustee. We can probably exchange private messages and meet. I can't thank you enough.

    Dear Viswa sir,
    A lot of planning and scheduling has gone into your program and I am sure you will be able to carry out what u set to achieve in your trip. Have a wonderful time inspite of the busy schedule. Would have loved to speak and meet u when in Bangalore, however we are now here in San jose at my sons place upto July first week.

    Dear Viswa,
    I dont envy your gruelling schedule.Meeting friends and exchanging gossip ,the acrimonious and new low election debates will keep the time flying.The most arduous job is to leave the house clean before your departure to make it hospitable on your return ,unpacking and rearranging things.My experience is the impact on the spinal cord. Chennai will help you to get seasoned.All the best.

    Dear SLN Sir,

    This time it is a lot more than that. Living certificate for my MIL, fixing a tenant for our apartment we left it empty last year, visit to Temples in Karnataka, 2 business trips to Trivandrum and Bangalore, 4 days of rituals for my mom starting the day I arrived, sale and registration of inherited property of my parents, review of other plots to reinvest, tax consulting relating to long-term capital gains, opening capital gains designated account, TDS certificates from the buyer, legal heir certificates, settling payments considering 17th, 18th and 19th Bank holidays for Mahavir Jayanthi, Election day and Good Friday, ticket reconfirmation including wheel chair for my MIL and veg meal, visit relatives, taxi from Orlando to Tampa, etc. were very taxing. I am glad where I am today but now I am worried about what landmine I will walk into in the US after more than a month's absence.

    @Viswamitra
    Dear Viswa
    Don't worry about any landmine but enter your place singing joyously 'This Land is Mine'
