The Hobbit Hole XVIII - Though we pass them by today...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 12/20/2004 9:01:36 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Though we pass them by today...

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, I've got to get out and go Christmas shopping.

I've put this off for far too long.

If you're going to run off Christmas shopping, you're bound to miss a few mini-dramas!

I'm off for home now. And it's -10. Ick.

Got some done on my story today. Almost done the first chapter. I'm rather proud of it...but I still hope Dad hasn't read my notes. *blush*

T'weren't shopping. We had to pay obligatory call on Grandmother, then we went for lunch, then picked up some groceries. I'm making a batch of my favorite cookies now.

It's very cold here. +10, and windy. I know you're colder, of course.

It was a different kind of wine...very potent. Remember how sick Thorin and Co. were when they got out of the barrels? That's from the wine residue. Elven wine will kill the hardiest of dwarves should he be foolish enough to drink it.

Got mine at Best Buy for 22.99. However, I think that was a first-day deal as I last saw them advertise it at 27.99.

Haven't seen it lower than that.

My cousin and I were talking about this...we think Billy and Dom should do Fili and Kili. For Bilbo, you need someone who can do a convincing Ian Holm.

Liam Neeson for Gandalf?

Hugo could stand up for another bout of Elrond, IMHO

And of course, Serkis...
