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!

I figured maybe we could visit the construction area for the new bridge. Who's bringin' the dynamite? Could be really big fun...

Oh, I guess it's not so bad. It's just annoying, especially because there really isn't an alternative route. And the new *&$#ing bridge they're building will actually do nothing for traffic except make it worse... it engenders a little bitterness for those of us that are essentially having a toll-booth put on our driveways.

After all, for a 15 minute trip, it only adds a couple of extra hours.

Sounds like rush hour in Austin. On a road with no construction.

No! You're kidding! It has nothing to do with those tolls does it? Paying your portion for the new bridge in the neighborhood is a good thing isn't it?

WN <---- is hiding now!

You wanna let them get further with the toll booths before you take 'em out.

Fireworks are always good!

Yesterday was "interesting." My neighbors were really having a good time. I mean, they seemed VEY happy people. Somewhat intoxicated maybe - but happy! They fired up their grille and cooked hot dogs in the late afternoon and then decided to try out all kinds of fireworks in their grille. Was amusing.... from my side of the fence. They have a new grille tonight. LOL

They are putting in a whole nother bridge to add an HOV lane. That's it.... two lanes, same as we got now, and an HOV lane.

Now. If you are going to go to the trouble to build a bridge a mile long couple hundred feet high, that will take years to build, wouldn't you splurge a little and make it wide enough to plan for expansion?

Everyone within 20 miles of it voted against it.... so they expanded the voting radius to include the surrounding counties to get enough votes. People that never drive it approved it.... sounded like a good idea to them....
