The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

The "Flying to Mount Doom" scenario came up on TORN a few years ago... Here is their take on the question.

I agree with that analysis. Sauron had his "radar system" up with the Eye and the Palantirs and his bird-spies, he could've sent the Nazgul or other servants to aerially intercept, plus he could've deployed "anti-aircraft" forces around Orodruin if he saw something like that coming.

It could get irritating.... unless you have second by second screen caps from it.

Tsk.... they aren't supposed to creak... ;~D

Since you reposted my comment, I have reread it and need to post an amendment, delete right "hand" and read right as in correct. One two many hands in the post. There was a good archery coach, even the cant or tilt of the bow is correct for a left hand shooter. Very well done.

I give Orlando Bloom a lot of credit for the amount of weapons training he puts in his movies. He also put in his time with the sword.

I'm hitting the hay, folkses. All that driving within the last 48 hours has taken the wind outta my sails.

Have a good night, Ruthy!

Why of course, we have Michael Jackson by an insane looking old man running the country. What could be wrong?
