The Hobbit Hole XIII - Let them pass! Let them pass!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 07/13/2004 9:49:23 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Let them pass! Let them pass!
(Note to dwarves, this is only meant figuratively)

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!

We've put an aquarium in there recently, the light makes a really cool night light in there.

I'll bet the sounds of the pump and filter make a nice 'white noise' to help her get to sleep!

It's supposed to be partly sunny here.

We've had quite a bit of rain this year! It's been really, really muggy lately. We must be getting the rain you aren't getting.

But the tomatoes like it...

I went out yesterday evening to check on my 'maters, and one of the cherries that had been just BARELY starting to change color the day before was bright orange. Should be red within the week! This is the first one...I feel like a proud parent. ;-)

The more I see of other places, the more I like it here.

Big stores are nice to visit...but dealing with traffic and crowds on a daily basis isn't my idea of a good life.

I was wondering about your pickles yesterday!

I wonder about sugar-free preserves? Like peach jam or something? Not sweetened with any thing...

Wonder if you could can up something like that?

If you're referring to the incident with the Uhaul, I was barely involved. All I did was give Rosie a little nudge out of the door.

I'm willing to help her out at the other end, should she make the right choice about destination, so the "nudge" on your end would have to be more along the lines of showing up with the Uhaul...

I don' think it's supposed to get over 75 degrees here tomorrow...now that is strange for this part of the country! You know we often have days in a row where it get over 100...this is just weird.

Not gonna complain though! :-)

All you have to decide is what to do
with the truck that is given to you.

My little brother and his wife are doing South Beach! He's been pretty big for several years...and he's lost 47 lbs!. I haven't seen him, but supposedly he looks great!

Steve was down to 167 the other day...his goal is 165, down from 210.

He just astounds me...I walked right past him in the grocery store the other day, didn't even recognize him.
