The Hobbit Hole XIV - Hill and Water Under Sky
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 08/05/2004 5:47:31 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Hill and water under sky

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!

Yeah, I still have IE. So if I want to get in the Chatroom, I should log on to Yahoo from the IE site?

You know, Colorado might be nice for a family vacation, too! Would mid-August work? That way, it would be before David and Clare head back to college, Joseph heads to school, and Paul heads to a job. (hopefully).

Wonder if any of us have frequent flier miles that could be donated for a really worthy cause?

Remind me to check when the time comes. I just may.

(hullo I am well lubricated from the luau. will attempt to post pictures momentarily)

Colorado would be a GREAT place for a vacation, August being I think an ideal time. If you like camping, I can't imagine a better place. The natural beauty... well, I figured out why so many Coloradans are eco-freaks, it's contagious!

I'd like to visit the cliff dwellings sometime, but they're about as far from me as you can get and still be in CO. Pike's Peak... you can drive to the top of that if you have a car that can handle gravel roads that go uphill... the Rockies...

Whoa! Clare's starting college next year? Did I know that? By the way if you ever want to get rid of her, she can come watch my anime for a week or so... but only if she brings fansubs I don't have... grin.

That's what I would recommend. As nifty as Firefox is for general browsing and FReepin, there are a few things that do work better in IE.

Hullo, let's see if I can accomplish this. It's questionable...




This evening was NOT brought to you by South Beach. Well actually, red wine is on Phase 2, but once you've finished the first bottle, it really doesn't matter anymore...

06 we're coming to your house.

Maybe by 07 I'll have found all the cool spots in CO and be a real tour guide.

Not a problem. I don't know what they were thinking when they scheduled that thing. Virginia Tech isn't even ranked this year.

They got over confident last year and blew it.

BTW, cool pictures. I love Colorado. Get down to Durango if you have the chance. It's a ways from you. But it would be worth a weekend.

And go to Colorado Springs and have a spendy dinner at "The Broadmoor."

Thanks for the suggestion!

I like driving off by myself, but for overnighters, I need someone along. To split the price, if nothing else. Hmmm... I need Rosie to come out here...

I drove 200 miles today, and got out a lot to look around. That's about my limit. Of course, as you can tell it was a lovely day for driving!
