The Hobbit Hole XV - Pass them by! Pass them by!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 09/02/2004 2:18:28 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Pass them by! Pass them by!

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!

Registered? Pfffft!

Do they actually ask for papers at the campground?

I think so. The club is owned by the Appaloosa Horse Club in the area. They're breed promoters, they sponsor horse shows and stuff, and they want registered horses ;~D

I don't know for sure, and lack of registration would not kill a sale on the right horse.

Dang... and I thought registering guns was bad. Now we have to register horses too.

Well, you can take it from my cold dead hooveses! :-)

Is that an assault-horse? Looks to me like there's a muzzle-flash device installed on that horse.

Not anymore! Quick get thyself to the smithee and procure an AR15 and the requisite collection of 30rd magazines. :-)

You just never know when such a thing might come in handy. Sorta like an antivirus tool, only more.

She was 7 grand!

Oh, and I've gone to another site now so you're doomed! BWAHAHAHAAH!!

This Appy is registered with the same club you mentioned. She's still only 14.2 hands, but the price is terrific!


Hi!

That horse looks like she'd plant one swift kick that would kill you quicker!

Well, she's also short, but her build is a lot stronger than the first one.... just compare the muscle mass.

That's a very good looking mare.

It's all about getting into the "good" campground, Ramius.

It's all about the fringe benefits. *grin*

She's throwing appys at me because I said we should look for an appy so we can join the appy club Bob belongs to with the private camp spot. Never mention an idea to Ruthy in passing... she will just grab and run with it!

bwaahahha... :-)

I'm just worried about those Palestinian suicide horses. I hate it when they do that.

She's got a nice expression. I don't even bother with the ones that have those "Imgonnakillya" looks....

Ever checked out BugMeNot? Simply enter the URL of the site, and it gives you a login and password. They even have a Firefox extension that will give you the info without even having to go to their site. Pretty sweet!
