Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
A sudden tree or standing stone
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! |

Yours and WN's bed is cushy, if not exactly huge (it's a queen). You'll be cramped a bit but comfy enough.
To: Scott from the Left Coast
I can sleep behind the potted plant!
Do you have a potted plant?

Yer taking reservations for the couch?
To: 2Jedismom
I don't know how I'd do on a little plane. I get seasick and I've heard small planes feel a bit like small boats.
I plan on definitely staying at the beach house Saturday so other than that, I'm flexible!

Yeah, but no guarantees on whether you'd survive the Dalmatians down there.
To: Overtaxed
Yeah, it's got your name on it.
To: Overtaxed
If you're not overly attached to the idea of sleeping on the couch at Scotts, maybe we could split a hotel room?

I don't mind sleeping on the couch. I'd sleep on the floor if I had a pillow....and the dogs didn't keep me up.
But if you really want to get a room, I can shop around and see what I can get....although I won't have a car....

Hair mentioned a Best Western?

The Hobbitcam is online again!It's not working for me, but it is for Rose (different browsers). Is it using Javascript this time?
To: Scott from the Left Coast; 2Jedismom; Wneighbor; Overtaxed; RMDupree; Ramius
Well, ecurbh and I just realized that Friday night, he'll be staying with his folks at their hotel, so we at least don't wake up together on Saturday (wink) and I can get ready alone and he won't see me. So maybe all the girls would want to come down here for Friday night and get ready with me Saturday...
Let me think this through for sure, but that just might work!
Any reason you think it wouldn't work with the schedule Ramius?
This place ain't fancy but I will have clean beds for ya!

Right here, Ramius. I'm sorry that your access is all ahoo.
Received ... executing.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Yeah, it uses a Javascript to refresh just the image. Tried an HTML <META> tag at first, but that makes it refresh the whole page.

When were you heading out to CO again? And how far will you be from the Denver area? I'll be leaving around the last week in July. Presumably I'll get a lease starting August 1st.
Fort Collins is about an hour or so north of Denver. When you come out, it'll be no trouble to pick you up at the airport!

We can take Ruthy and WN (and Ramius!) to Frisco Freeze or The Rock or E-9 on Thursday. I can't wait!!! I am on pins and needles here tonight! We will make sure you can be home in time for your beauty sleep though Scott. :-)

So I can have Scott's couch on Thursday, stay your place on Friday, sleep at the beachhouse on Sat. Sunday would be the only question mark then??
Oh, this sounds like fun!

Yeah, I know that the version of the Opera browser I use gets squirrely if the Javascript is too complicated, so it's probably an error on my end.
To: 2Jedismom
Well, yeah! - and Sunday is the night I hope to have everyone either camp here in the witch's circle, or if that is too much trouble (or the weather isn't cooperating) and it is too cramped here, the Best western is not far.
