The Hobbit Hole X - That none have seen but we alone.

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...That none have seen but we alone.

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!

Well, they looked pointed at the end to me... which makes 'em kinda ovate but with a point which would put 'em in the lance shape for classification. Or maybe elliptical but I think they're too pointy for elliptical.

P.S. What I can't tell is if they're palmates with 3 leaves or 5 or 6. Can't tell that from the photo.

Of course, that information does me not much good unless I find the big book.

I started hunting around on the web for some software that might be able to connect to it... and ran across a review of the same model. Seems that particular cam is not compatible with any other webcam software but its own.

I've packed it back up. Going to return it tomorrow and head to Fry's. They should have better selection.

This recipe is for you! babygirl just woke up starving, had half a meal, and fell back asleep. I am gonna have to wake her up to eat some more. We can't be skipping meals!!

Other than a bit of heat rash, she is doing very well.

Also, we can't see the stem. I found one plant - I dunno which book now even - that only had a verbal description with no picture - the description fit these flowers and leaves, there were several species but it said all had stems that are coarse and hairy. LOL - I do not even have a clue at this point what that was because I decided what little I could see of the stem was not coarse and hairy.

We got our HomeSat set up today...it gets better reception than our regular "rabbit ear" antennas!

Steve mounted it on a pole back behind the garage. Ran the cable through the attic and down the wall behind the tv.

It's huge...not a little dish like the Dish Network type...

No I haven't found out more about the package Samwise. I am having to wait for Jill to call me back. She and Tom are in Virginia Beach where he is working for about 3 weeks. I forgot to get the number in their room the other day when I called.

This was a comedy of errors. Jill seldom uses her cell phone. I reached her on it though and as usual we talked till her battery went down. It was a good while before she called me back - she had forgotten to bring her charger so she got a calling card to call me back. She was about to give me the number to call them at the base hotel but we were laughing and cutting up and forgot all about that! So, now, I can't reach her!

Still waiting for her to call back.

Now it's a quest.

but yeah... if it looks like nothing will work right, I'll just back up to the plan of moving the 'puter out on the deck and using the wired one.

How about "Top Secret". That'll work. :-)
