The Hobbit Hole XII - Tree and flower and leaf and grass
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Tree and flower and leaf and grass

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, you have to take lots of shots sometimes to get the one great shot!

Especially with film camera where you can't tell immediately what you've got, but also with digitals in any kind of action shot, because of the dang delay of a second or two between hitting the button till it finally takes the shot. Sometimes the horses have changed direction and the shot is over.

What an awesome surprise! Did they all know, and just keep it from you? Tell Steve Hi for us, and by the way,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

I saw a fair number of soldiers at the airport in Atlanta as I was coming through on Sunday morning.

Oh - and since you are 400 posts behind.... I'll put up the warning sign.... ;~D

LOL! I saw that sign, and stole the image for my files! ;o)
As you can see, I've about caught up, and I don't think I funkled once! That's because it was the middle of the day rather than the middle of the night when I'm usually on!

Okay...here they are. I did more "scenery" than portrait shots...except for the cat and the horses. :)

Well... the wireless thing is working for the moment. We'll see how long it lasts.

Yes... the Howard Shore concert will be cool...

Though this week I'm getting keyed up for Rush at the White River Apth. Friday night. Geddy Lee and the boys.

I'm really, really looking forward to this...

Make that a grey and white tabby, and you'd have a good approximation of what my one cat looked like...

Howdy there. :-)

The wireless bidness seems to be working again for reasons that I'm at a loss to 'splain.

Yeah...I like the sunset photo....and the cat. Guess I'll have to hurry up and finish the other roll. I think I have "Many Partings" and shots of Mt. Ranier out the car window.

Prayer honey... might be that somebody was prayin'! :-)

How's your day other than that? I spent half the afternoon driving around the countryside with Aunt Cheryl just cause we could. LOL

Heh, yeah... for the first couple of days, only a couple of people knew how to get to where we were going, so we usually formed up a convoy of two or three vehicles, playing follow the leader!

Vancouver Washington is right across the river from Portland.... Sorry. We must be very specific when speak of Vancouver around here, and I failed :~\

We have developed the pics from the disposables.... some good shots! - but we haven't scanned them yet. Still waiting on our "official" pics from the photographer before putting the best of them on a website.
