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!

Thanks, Bear, hoping the same thing myself.
Just finished putting up some shutters, do some more tomorrow. Jeanne wants me to leave a couple until the last moment, so she can see out of the house.

She was in the supermarket today, getting some water, TP, gatorade, paper plates, etc. A supermarket in an area threatened by a hurricane really has to be seen. What a zoo! Although I have heard that it is very similar in towns that have blizzard warnings.

Hope I can get my generator going if I need it, got some ether and carb cleaner, if that don't do it, I'll have to take the carb apart I guess.

"I'll pray it diminishes into nothing but a soft breeze."

It's gonna do that eventually, would be cool if it happens tomorrow, though. All prayers accepted gratefully.

Maybe someone can freepmail me a cell # or something, in case we lose power.

I think I have got Ruthy's around here somewhere, if I can find it.

11 o' clock advisory is still showing only tropical storm weather for our area, but they are being very careful to say they don;t know exactly where it is going. They gun shy after what happened with Charley. I am going to bed folks, see you in the morning!
