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!

Sort of... I arrived in Austin Dec. 30, 1989. Rose and I weren't officially married (by a JP) until May 4, 2001. So, we've got two anniversaries.

Good evening!

I'm finally caught up! But now I gots to go to bed. *sigh* Ain't that always the way?

Had a good music night. We're playing for an open mic next week (at Middle Earth Music, actually!) and it was half practice, half goofing around. Everyone was a little silly tonight. Kinda fun when that happens.

I got a silver 2000 Toyota Rav4 L - power everything, even a sunroof (sheesh!). But it's way better for the girls and, to be honest, me. We've needed a backseat for a long time, but I just couldn't part with ol' Betsy!

I actually got choked up when they took the tag off of the truck and put it on the Rav4. I've had that truck for 10 years, even longer than my kids!! LOL!
